127th Wing Recognizes New Senior NCOs Published Feb. 1, 2025 By Sr. Master Sgt. Dan Heaton 127th Wing Public Affairs SELFRIDGE AIR NATIONAL GUARD BASE, Mich. -- Thirty-eight Citizen-Airmen of the Michigan Air National Guard’s 127th Wing were recognized in February for their promotion to the senior noncommissioned officer corps during an induction ceremony at Selfridge Air National Guard Base, Feb. 1, 2025.The Airmen were all promoted to the rank of master sergeant in 2024, placing them among the senior tier of the enlisted force of the Air Force.Advancement to the rank of master sergeant means that the words found in the Air Force creed of “wingman, leader, warrior,” mean a little bit more, said Chief Master Sgt. Bruce Hedrick, command chief master sergeant of the 127th Wing.“Becoming a senior NCO means that the job is not done. In fact, we need your leadership more than ever and, more importantly, your Airmen need it,” Hedrick said.During the ceremony, each of the newly-minted master sergeants were awarded a coin from the Top III Council and a certificate of appreciation.“We look to these senior NCOs to continue to make a difference not only in their individual shops, but across the wing and the Air Force as a whole,” said Master Sgt. Jabett Glenn, who served as master of ceremonies at the ceremony.Recognized during the ceremony were:Jennifer Sladovich, 127th Wing headquartersJacquelyn Sommers, 127th Wing headquartersChelsea Fitzpatrick, 127th Wing headquartersErica Garza, 127th Air Refueling GroupAaron Wacker, 191st Aircraft Maintenance SquadronKayla Walls, 191st Aircraft Maintenance SquadronChristopher Johnson, 191st Maintenance SquadronJarod Mansfield, 191st Maintenance SquadronBradley McClellan, 191st Maintenance SquadronMichael Owen, 191st Maintenance SquadronJoshua Terlaje, 191st Maintenance SquadronJordan Kaminski, 171st Air Refueling SquadronCorey Brazill, 127th Civil Engineer SquadronSamara Underwood, 127th Civil Engineer SquadronJames Mack, 127th Communications SquadronJoel Canvasser, 127th Force Support SquadronRaymond Stier, 127th Force Support SquadronGrant Kumfer, 127th Logistics Readiness SquadronMichael Godwin, 127th Logistics Readiness SquadronChristopher Dressig, 127th Security Forces SquadronJames Myatt, 127th Security Forces SquadronRoberto Trevino, 127th Security Forces SquadronTami Morgan, 127th Maintenance GroupElizabeth Muhaw, 127th Maintenance GroupDain Zielinski, 127th Maintenance GroupFrank Grebenok, 127th Aircraft Maintenance SquadronCory Jones, 127th Aircraft Maintenance SquadronKyle Martinez, 127th Aircraft Maintenance SquadronAaron Mills, 127th Aircraft Maintenance SquadronAdam Ring, 127th Aircraft Maintenance SquadronJason Chapman, 127th Maintenance SquadronDamon Childers, 127th Maintenance SquadronMichael Ginzel, 127th Maintenance SquadronDrew Reynolds, 127th Maintenance SquadronScott Robbert, 127th Maintenance SquadronJames Tennimon, 127th Maintenance SquadronShinika Chelcher-St. Croix, 285th Civil Engineer SquadronKeisha Huggins, 285th Civil Engineer Squadron
