BEALE AIR FORCE BASE, CA (MPG) - U.S. Air Force Gen. Mike Holmes, Air Combat Command (ACC) commander, announced ACC annual award winners.

Air Combat Command is the primary force provider of combat airpower to war fighting commands, which makes receiving recognition at that level prestigious. Our very own Senior Master Sgt. Adam Barraclough, 9th Security Forces Squadron superintendent, won ACC Senior Non-commissioned Officer (SNCO).

“It is an extreme honor to be selected to represent Recce Town on the 12 Outstanding Airmen of the Year playing field,” said Barraclough, “It’s truly humbling because I don’t feel I did anything special or out of the ordinary for a SNCO in the Security Forces career field.”

Barraclough competed against six other SNCO’s to win and he now moves up to the next level of competition with the Department of the Air Force level awards.

Barraclough leads 320 active duty, reserve, DoD civilian and DAF guard personnel in the safeguarding of $3.5B in Department of Defense (DoD) assets including a Protection Level 1 strategic missile and space tracking and warning system.

Barraclough serves as the principle adviser to the Security Forces Squadron commander on all issues regarding the welfare, readiness, morale, proper utilization and progress of 297 enlisted members.
