TACOMA In a historic decision for what he termed a "highly charged civil-rights movement," a federal judge on Friday ordered the Air Force Reserve to reinstate Maj. Margaret Witt, a lesbian flight nurse, to her position at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. You will provide the best evidence that open service of gays and lesbians will have no adverse effect on cohesion, morale or readiness in this or perhaps any Air Force or military unit," said U.S. District Court Judge Ronald Leighton, who after the ruling spoke from the bench in a voice that often quavered with emotion.
Air Force Reserve Senior Airman Thomas Adamo Jr. has been decorated with the Air Force's newest medal issued, the Air Force Combat Action Medal. The medal is awarded to recognize Air Force members who have been engaged in air or ground combat "outside the wire" in a combat zone, including members who have been under direct and hostile fire, or who personally engaged hostile forces with direct and lethal fire. Adamo, a security forces fire team member with six years of military service, is regularly assigned to the 919th Medical Squadron, Duke Field, Crestview, Fla.
The Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station would lose three of its 11 cargo planes by next year -- and the Air National Guard unit at the base would lose its mission -- under an Air Force restructuring announced Friday. Still, the restructuring plan, at least for now, spares the facility from the worst of the cuts.
A $12.4 million appropriation moving through Congress shows the Pentagon no longer views the Air Force Reserve's 911th Airlift Wing in Moon as a target for elimination, the unit's commanding officer said Wednesday. Col. Gordon H. Elwell said the wing hasn't received construction funding since 1996 because it twice was targeted for closure in nationwide restructurings of military bases. The 911th emerged from the latest review in 2005 with a recommendation for expansion.
DAYTON -- Will Mosier's list of credentials is considerable, no matter which list you read.

The spokesman for the Army Reserve's 316th Sustainment Command is suing an Air Force Reserve official for allegedly defaming him in an email to his commanding officer, according to federal court documents filed today. Capt. Kevin McNamara filed the sealed lawsuit in Allegheny County Common Pleas against Terrance Stuart, director of Airman and Family Readiness at the 911th Airlift Wing. The U.S. Attorney's Office, which is representing Stuart, filed a motion to move the case to federal court. Stuart was acting in his official capacity when he sent the email to McNamara's commanding officer, the notice says.
