Well Done Award: TSgt Cory B. Little

from AMC

2/5/2014 - Spring 2014 -- Congratulations to TSgt Cory B. Little, 573d Global Support Squadron, 621st Contingency Response Wing, Travis AFB, on his recent receipt of the Air Force Weapons Safety Well Done Award for outstanding achievements in Weapons Safety.

Sergeant Little was recognized for his excellence in handling the safety, security, and maintenance of 975 weapons and 627,000 rounds of ammunition valued at approximately $1.9 million. His thorough oversight ensured 662 Contingency Response Wing personnel were safely trained, armed, and prepared to support the Wing's capability to respond rapidly to global contingencies, humanitarian aid, and disaster relief operations.

An innovative thinker, Sergeant Little initiated multiple training, standardization, and certification programs, promoting a culture of safety that directly contributed to the Wing's impressive zero Class A and B mishap record and the Squadron's receipt of the Contingency Response Unit of the Year Award.

It isn't possible to list all of Sergeant Little's accomplishments, but a few specific milestones include initiation of a Wing Explosive Detector Program, spearheading ammunition deployment Standard Operating Procedures, and launching a Squadron Armory Training Program. Additionally, several of his ideas for managing inventory saved the Air Force a considerable amount of money.

These and his many other accomplishments, along with Sgt Little's overall commitment to excellence, exemplify the highest standards of weapon safety. Thank you for your dedication, Sgt Little, and congratulations on receiving the Well Done Award.
