The Air Force recognized one of its most elite operators with a Silver Star on Friday for incredible courage under fire during a 2017 mission on the Arabian Peninsula. Master Sgt. Cory Haggett, a pararescueman assigned to the 23rd Special Tactics Squadron, ran back and forth under intense enemy fire to treat four injured comrades while on a night raid deep in enemy territory on January 28, 2017, according to Haggett’s award citation.

Haggett also received a Bronze Star on Friday for his excellent performance on multiple missions in Afghanistan from July 1 to November 1, 2019.
