VIP visit
Senior Airman Derrick Appiah, 512th Force Support Squadron, meets Secretary of Defense Leon E. Panetta Dec. 12, 2012, while deployed to the 386th Air Expeditionary Wing, Southwest Asia. The actions of Appiah, who's on the Personnel Support for Contingency Operations team, made it possible for 20 deployed Airmen to make it home to the United States in time for Christmas.
