Actually, an Apache pilot who is now in Afghanistan is coming home in the next few weeks and gets to join our softball team again. We missed him last year.

I won't give too many details about him personally, but let's just say he does other flight duties enforcing laws in our great state.

I don't know the exact award...but he was part of a rescue operation of a Black Hawk crew in Afghanistan that warranted a visit from Gen Myers himself. Seen the pictures. It will be an honor being hit into a double-play by him when he returns. ;)

I bet he can cover a lot of ground in the outfield in that Apache!
