STEP up to Tech.
Tech. Sgt. Margaret Killoy stands with Lt. Gen. William Shelton, 14th Air Force commander, after being STEP promoted to technical sergeant Feb. 7. Sergeant Killoy was promoted under the Stripes for Exceptional Performers, or ‘STEP’ program. When asked how he felt about being able to STEP promote Sergeant Killoy, General Shelton said, "One of the great privileges of command is the ability to recognize
outstanding performance by our Airmen. In a special category of that
privilege is STEP promotions. Being able to instantly promote someone who
is so deserving is truly special and enjoyable." Sergeant Killoy is the NCO in charge of the 21st SW computer security. (U.S. Air Force photo)
