    The 188th Wing announced its 2018 Outstanding Airmen of the Year during a ceremony held recently at the Red Horse Training Center here.

    The Airmen selected are recognized for their consistent performance above expectations and setting the standard for their fellow Airmen to meet.

    “Each year, the 188th Wing seeks to recognize the Air Force core values of integrity, service and excellence,” said Col. Robert I. Kinney, 188th Wing commander. “The Airmen chosen here have done great things for us, and we can’t wait to see what they’ll accomplish next.”

    These honorees, selected from across the nearly 1000 men and women in the wing, are:

    Junior Enlisted Airman of the Year: Airman 1st Class Alyssa E. Tidwell, 188th Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Squadron
    Noncommissioned Officer of the Year: Staff Sgt. Jaime Flores, 188th Security Forces Squadron
