The Air Force has awarded a Bronze Star Medal to TSgt. Timothy Haffner for actions during his six-month tour in Iraq. Haffner is an explosive ordnance disposal journeyman with Air Force Reserve Command’s 482nd Civil Engineer Squadron at Homestead ARB, Fla. He led an EOD team embedded with US and Iraqi Army units on a deployment that covered more than 140 combat missions, reports SrA. Erik Hofmeyer.
The Space Development Agency says it’s on track to issue its next batch of missile warning and tracking satellite contracts this month after those awards were delayed by the Pentagon’s decision to divert funds from the agency to pay troops during this fall’s prolonged government shutdown.
