February 2020 Chief’s Choice Award

Senior Airman Marcus Fisher, 608th Air Operations Center intel analyst, poses for a photo in front of the 8th Air Force headquarters building at Barksdale Air Force Base, La., March 2, 2020. Fisher was recently awarded February's Chief Choice Award at Barksdale. Fisher stood out from his peers as a lead analyst and briefer during the rise of tensions with Iran where his briefings were key to informing senior leaders on the events as they unfolded and resulted in the launch of B-52H Stratofortresses. This ultimately provided the President of the United States and the Secretary of Defense response options to aid in deterring Iranian aggression. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Tessa B.
