Elevating the cyber security mission, Air Force Reserve Command’s 934th Airlift Wing communications flight achieved squadron status during a re-designation ceremony at Minneapolis-St. Paul Air Reserve Station. TSgt. Terry Neff, 934th Communications Squadron client services craftsman, said the re-designation gives the unit “parallel personnel and resources” that will help further Air Forces Cyber’s mission in defending the nation. Lt. Col. Rick Erredge stepped up to command the newly christened squadron, accepting the ceremonial guidon from 934th Mission Support Group Commander Col. Michael Ochs. “Change is a common thread in our business and our unit has been a prime example of how to be successful under constant forces of change,” said Erredge, at the Jan. 7 ceremony.
