Two airmen from the North Dakota Air Guard Detachment at the Minot (N.D.) Air Force Base will receive the Air Force Combat Action Medal during a ceremony at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday.
Master Sgt. Dominic Cook, West Fargo, and Tech. Sgt. Aaron Giere, Hawley, Minn., will receive medals in recognition of actively participating in combat operations while serving in Iraq in 2003.
The AFCAM medals are awarded to individuals who go outside the defended perimeter to conduct duties under lethal enemy attack and are at risk of grave danger.
