USAF enlisted rarely receive medals. It’s a sad situation that also feeds the armchair warrior reputation of the AF.

Combat controllers are pretty bad ass but they don’t have the same marketing that the seals do.
True. One of the only portrayals of an AF FAC was in the sci fi Battle of Los Angeles. But I think the producers wanted a female warrior and an AF FAC was believable.

Seemed somewhat generous and made me wonder at the Air Forces awards policies.
