We welcomed Lt. Gen. Linda Hurry, Air Force Materiel Command deputy commander, today to give her updates about our global operations that support every organization in the Department of the Air Force.

She also took time while here to recognize four of our teammates for their outstanding performance: Capt. Melissa Maskulka, Master Sgt. Lewis Christopher, Marc Minneci and John Ahern, who was recognized in absentia because he was in the field taking care of design and construction business with our customers. #DAFStrong #IAMIMSC #DAF
