KUNSAN AIR BASE, Republic of Korea -- Staff Sgt. Alexandria Washington, a native of San Antonio, Texas and 8th Operations Support combat intelligence cell analyst, was awarded Pride of the Pack for the week of July 14-18 for her critical role during Red-Flag Alaska as the combat intelligence cell analyst non-commissioned officer in charge where she delivered all-source analysis on evolving conflicts within the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility.

As the combat intelligence cell NCOIC, she played a pivotal role in delivering timely and accurate intelligence briefs to leadership and Airmen while facing a 65% manning gap. Over the course of 45 days, she provided 10 high-impact intelligence products, and ensured the continuity of intelligence operations which directly contributed to the missions’ success.

Her ability to adapt and respond to rapidly changing circumstances also extended to small Unmanned Aircraft Systems threat awareness. Her collaboration with 8th Security Forces Squadron and 8th Operations Support Squadron counterparts strengthened the 8 FW’s Counter-SUAS efforts, ensuring timely threat updates and refining defensive strategies to mitigate potential risks.

In addition to her intelligence role, Washington was entrusted with the position of Special Security Representative, a responsibility typically held by a Major, during which she executed over 32 indoctrinations and briefings for incoming and outgoing leadership. Her efforts ensured that classified information was safeguarded, and continuity across the Pack wasn’t interrupted.

Thank you, Staff Sgt. Washington, for your exceptional service and incredible contributions to the Wolf Pack mission. Congratulations on being this week’s Pride of the Pack!
