Airmen at Andersen AFB, Guam, held a special memorial last week to honor A1C Portica Beckton, who died on Sept. 9 while deployed to Kosovo when the vehicle in which she was riding rolled over. Beckton was a client support administrator with the 36th Contracting Squadron at Andersen who had deployed to Kosovo on an air and space expeditionary rotation. The other three service members in the vehicle survived with minor injuries.
An important U.S. Air Force E-3 Sentry AWACS command and control plane was among the aircraft damaged in a March 27 Iranian missile and drone attack on Prince Sultan Air Base, Saudi Arabia, people familiar with the matter told Air & Space Forces Magazine.
