The Defense Department has named Lt. Col. Stephen Kennedy, head of the 18th Comptroller Squadron at Kadena AB, Japan, on the island of Okinawa, as one of the four top military comptrollers of the year. Pacific Air Forces already had recognized Kennedy and his unit as tops in the command for 2007. (18th Wing report by TSgt. Rey Ramon)
