SrA. Meaghan Holley, a geospatial intelligence analyst with the Geospatial-Intelligence Analysis Squadron at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, is one of the Air Force’s 12 Outstanding Airman of the Year for 2015. Holley was instrumental in analyzing data and imagery collected by national systems in support of the Intelligence Community, combatant commands, and national mission partners. She led a 10-member target analysis team that located and relayed the positions of more than 4,300 compounds to coalition forces, leading to the seizing of three weapon caches and more than $2 million in narcotics. As a national intelligence report editor, Holley revised 42 reports and fixed 587 errors while boosting team production by 45 percent. Additionally, she completed six college classes and 12 leadership and management courses with a stellar 4.0 GPA, earning her Community College of the Air Force degree in intelligence studies and technology, and completing the requirements for a Bachelor of Science degree in behavioral science.
