314 AW CGOY

Let me give a brief background into the title of this post. This all started a few weeks ago when Jason was submitted to the group for CGO (Company Grade Officer) of the year, after winning at the squadron. Our squadron is a tenant unit here at Keesler AFB; our home base is Little Rock AFB, where the operations group and wing are located. Little Rock AFB is a C-130 base and we are a C-21 squadron; the odds are never in our favor. So, when Jason won CGO for the ops group, it was quite a surprise for everyone. He and LtCol Canlas flew to Little Rock AFB for the annual awards banquet and represented our humble little C-21 squadron. Not only did they represent the squadron, Jason brought home CGO for the Wing!
I wish I could've been there, Lt.Col. Canlas sent me a text as soon as Jason won and this is what it said: Hot off the press...Jason Eddy-314th Airlift Wing CGO of the year!



The C-130 Model is the award from the wing, even though Jason has never flown the C-130 we'll humbly accept it and envision a C-21 :-)
