The following Airmen were selected to represent the first sergeant special duty team for this year's award:

-- Chief Master Sgt. David Henry, Headquarters, Air Force Reserve Command, Robins Air Force Base, Ga.
-- Senior Master Sgt. Melanie Noel, First Sergeant Academy, Gunter Annex, Ala.

-- Senior Master Sgt. Ernest Williams, 147th Combat Communications Squadron, San Diego Air National Guard Station, Calif.
-- Master Sgt. Todd Meaney, 790th Missile Security Forces Squadron, F.E. Warren AFB, Wyo.

Award winners will be recognized during a presentation ceremony in Washington, D.C in May.
