Desert Lightning News – Digital and print publication serving Davis-Monthan AFB, Tucson AZ and surrounding communities. An AerotechNews.com Publication.
Hello everyone, and welcome to the June 2021 edition of Davis-Monthan AFB Desert Lightning News! The 355th Security Forces Squadron at Davis-Monthan AFB hosted its first-ever Advanced Designated Marksman Course. “Precision marksmen are an invaluable force multiplier that have historically had a greater mission impact than units much larger in size,” said Senior Airman Luis A. Padilla-Braun, 355th SFS Patrolman. This was the first course of its kind at Davis-Monthan and it produced four qualified Advanced Designated Marksman teams. We have full coverage of this story and much more news for you, in this month’s issue of Desert Lightning News.
