Three enlisted Airmen from the 507th Air Refueling Wing were named quarterly award winners for the first quarter of 2010.

Senior Airman Gregory Green from the 507th Maintenance Squadron took home the Airman of the Quarter award. Tech. Sgt. Elizabeth Condon of the 35th Combat Communications Squadron was named the Non-Commissioned Officer of the Quarter. And Master Sgt. Timothy Parker of the 72nd Aerial Port Squadron earned Senior Non-Commissioned Officer of the Quarter accolades.

Senior Airman Green is an aircraft maintenance technician, achieving a 100 percent pass rate on aircraft quality assurance inspections since he arrived at the 507th in March 2009.

Green also improves deployment readiness levels in his unit as a technical order account custodian, maintaining over 130 volumes of technical orders.
Green finished his 5-level Career Development Courses in only four months, eight months ahead of the standard, with an 86% final score.

Green completed 59 hours toward his CCAF associate' s degree, while working on earning a bachelor's degree from the University of Oklahoma.
Tech. Sgt. Condon is a cyber transport systems craftsman, rated "Excellent" by two different MAJCOMs in her primary duties.

Condon developed a color-coding system to quickly identify equipment during pallet build-ups. This system cut build-up time by 50 percent.

Condon led a $20 million equipment build-up, consisting of 15 pallets, seven rolling stacks, weighing over 125 thousand pounds. Her efforts got the build-up airworthy in less than 56 hours.

Additionally, Condon completed 40 hours of security courses and earned a CompTIA Security-Plus network certification, something that only four out of ten C4 personnel achieve.

Master Sgt. Parker is the non-commissioned officer in charge of Aircraft Services. He was responsible for transporting over 5,400 tons of cargo, 1,200 passengers, and more than 1,900 pallets in support of Operation ENDURING FREEDOM while on annual tour out of state.

Parker ensured all personnel completed 100 percent of their core training tasks, while on annual tour.

In addition, Parker led his unit's inspection of the Logistics Standardization and Evaluation Program for Material Handling Equipment, leading to zero write-ups from 4th Air Force.

Finally, Parker finished twelve college credit hours toward a bachelor's degree in organizational leadership. He also made his school's President's Honor Roll with his 4.0 grade point average.
