Colin McCready, 712th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron maintainer, inspects the wing of a C-17 Globemaster III during the Liberty Eagle Readiness Exercise at Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, July 15, 2022. McCready is one of many maintainers from the 512th and 436th airlift wings who worked together during a simulated deployment to a forward operating base, located on Dover AFB, July 11-15, 2022. The purpose of this exercise was to validate both wings' ability to generate, employ and sustain airpower across the world in a contested and degraded operational environment.

Tech. Sgt. Marcela Itah, 89th Airlift Squadron squadron aviation resource management technician, is coined by Chief Master Sgt. of the Air Force JoAnne Bass Oct. 2, 2021, for being an exceptional performer in her unit. In addition to her dedicated service on a daily basis, Itah volunteered for a deployment to Ramstein Air Base, Germany, where she was lauded by the 10th Expeditionary Aeromedical Evacuation Flight commander for outstanding performance and was named “721st Mobility Support Squadron Exceptional Performer of the Month.” Itah was also recently recognized for saving the life of an Ohio Air National Guard Airman who had posted a suicide note on social media. Her quick and decisive action was directly responsible for prompt intervention before the Airman could act on his intentions. Three Airmen from the 445th Airlift Wing were coined for being outstanding performers for their respective units.
