    A-10 pilots awarded Distinguished Flying Cross for strikes on ISIL

    A-10 pilots awarded Distinguished Flying Cross for strikes on ISIL

    Infantry and SoF guys love the A-10 pilots.

    For the second time this year, the U.S. Air Force awarded two A-10C Thunderbolt pilots the Distinguished Flying Cross for separate close-air support missions in support of the fight against Islamic State in Iraq and Syria militants.

    The missions included a danger-close strike and strikes in an anti-aircraft artillery zone to protect American-backed Syrian Democratic Forces during Operation Inherent Resolve.



    Maj. Matthew "Chowder" Cichowski and Capt. William "Archer" Dana of the 74th Fighter Squadron at Moody Air Force Base, Georgia, received the award during a ceremony May 23, Air Combat Command said in a recent release.


    Dana and Cichowski had been stationed together at Incirlik Air Base, Turkey, and were recognized for their actions to stave off the enemy in various locations in the Middle East.
