    Pfc. Glendon Oakley, a native of Killeen, Texas and an automated logistical specialist assigned to 504th Composite Supply Company, 142nd Combat Support Sustainment Battalion, 1st Armored Division Sustainment Brigade, helped children to safety during the active shooter tragedy in El Paso, Texas, August 3. “You could hear all of the chaos going around, and that’s when I did what I was trained to do,” said Oakley, “I quickly reacted and I thought to myself if my child were there how I would want someone else to react. I just took action and tried to get as many kids as possible.”
