Security forces NCO earns Bronze Star with Valor

Only 20 minutes prior to the firefight Aug. 8, 2006 in Qalat Province, Afghanistan, Staff Sgt. Jason Kimberling had this photo taken of himself by a fellow Airman. Sergeant Kimberling was awarded a Bronze Star with valor and an Army Commendation Medal at Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho, July 19 for his actions in Afghanistan. Sergeant Kimberling was one of only three Americans in a coalition tasking with the Afghan national police and Army that was attacked. His actions prevented the entire coalition force from being split up during an ambush. Sergeant Kimberling is assigned to the 366th Security Forces Squadron at Mountain Home AFB. (Courtesy photo)
