Four years ago, March 25 2015, MSgt Matty Garcia was awarded a Soldier’s Medal for his actions to during my rescue in Afghanistan on September 7, 2013.
It was an honor to be there at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base with him & his family and with Maj Mary Clark (Jayhoon 11, Mi-17 pilot) for the ceremony.
It isn’t every day one gets to talk with the USAF Chief of Staff, Gen Mark Welsh. It certainly is not common for someone to get to enjoy a beer with the people that were so instrumental in their own rescue operation.
