Maj. Gen. Sean Gainey, Director, Joint C-UAS Office (JCO) and Director, Fires in the G3/5/7, HQ Department of the Army, presented Sgt. Jose Martinez with a challenge coin in recognition of his outstanding performance while deployed in support of air defense operations with the 5th Battalion, 7th Air Defense Artillery in southeast Poland.
Two batteries of the 5th Battalion, 7th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, a part of the 10th Army Air & Missile Defense Command, deployed to Poland from their home base in Baumholder, Germany in February 2022, just days after Russia’s unprovoked invasion of the sovereign European nation of Ukraine.
The deployment of these air & missile defense systems is purely defensive. They contribute to the robust shielding provided along NATO’s Eastern flank.
