The Air Force has awarded Maj. Douglas Webb, 5th Medical Operations Squadron, Minot AFB, N.D., a Bronze Star for his actions during deployment to forward operating base Al Kasik, Iraq. According to the Minot Northern Star, Webb oversaw opening a new $1 million troop medical clinic and medical training for Iraqi soldiers. He also served on 23 combat patrols as a medic, driver, and truck commander, and provided emergency medical care to 70 casualties, among other accomplishments.
The Space Force officially renamed Space Operations Command to Combat Forces Command on Nov. 3, a change it says better reflects the service’s warfighting focus.
