"There are many things I enjoy about being in the Air Force, so that makes it hard to pick a favorite one. However, I would say that traveling around the world is up at the top of my list. In the 11 years I have been in, I have actually only been stationed in the United States for three and a half years. I have seen different parts of the world, from Europe to the Orient to the far reaches of Greenland. So yes, I would say that the world travel is one of my favorite things about the Air Force." Why he was selected for this award: "Sergeant Ehlert came to the group staff after 10 years on the street, having never worked on a staff before, let alone worked one desk away from a group commander. He plunged into the anti-terrorism plan, a critical write-up from the 2006 unit compliance inspection, and completed it while coordinating issues with two major commands and a combatant command to ensure Thule is safe from threats." - Lt. Col. David Arnold, 821st Air Base Group deputy commander
