U.S. Air Force Senior Master Sgt. Gary West, the 7th Airlift Squadron’s senior enlisted leader has been chosen to be the representative for Air Mobility Command for the prestigious Staff Sgt. Henry E. “Red” Erwin award.
During his time in service, one of West’s many notable contributions to the Air Force has been leading an eight-member team of experts in making significant changes to special leave accrual. Special leave accrual is a policy allowing service members to accrue and retain excess leave days beyond the normal maximum limit.
