    Senior Airman Levoun Ohan Network Management Operator of the 691st Cyberspace Operations Squadron stationed at Ramstein Air Force Base, Germany manages the U.S. Air Force Europe network, including troubleshooting, fixing, creating, configuring infrastructure network devices within the USAFE theatre.

    His journey to enlisting in the Air Force as a cyber operator Feb. 18, 2020 exemplifies a story of grit, determination and the sacrifice for the freedoms that the U.S. military serves to protect worldwide.

    Ohan is very proud and has a strong belief in telling the story of his background and ethnicity.

    “I came from Armenian Origins-- my ancestors had to flee to Iraq during the Armenian Genocide that was responsible for killing 1.5 Million Armenians,” said Ohan. “It is a part of who I'm besides having been raised in Iraq,” said Ohan.
    Ohan was born and raised in Baghdad, Iraq, became an Iraqi interpreter for the U.S. Military in 2003 at the start of the war.
