Air Force Combat Action Medal
Beneath the spires of the Air Force Memorial, in Arlington, Va., Air Force Chief of Staff T. Michael Moseley awarded six Airmen the new Air Force Combat Action Medal June 12. The decoration is the first of its kind for the Air Force. The medal was designed for Airmen who have been directly in harm's way, engaging enemy forces. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt.
