Gabriel Schaffner, the 673d Force Support Squadron noncommissioned officer in charge of outbound assignments, is awarded a Joint Service Achievement Medal for his participation in the recovery effort during Operation Colony Glacier by U.S. Air Force Col. Kirsten Aguilar, Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson and 673d Air Base Wing commander, at JBER, Alaska, Feb. 12, 2021.
