Senior Airman Christian Beauchamp

Senior Airman Christian Beauchamp Response Force Leader 791 Missile Security Forces Squadron Saint Augustine, Florida "Being a part of the nuclear mission as a defender at Minot Air Force Base is a tremendous responsibility; it means being a professional no matter what the job or the elements throw your way. This particular mission demands Airmen who are subject matter experts in every aspect of their job, because defending our nation's most powerful arsenal expects nothing less. The day-in, day-out dedication that nuclear Airmen showcase is a true testament to our selfless commitment to our nation and allies."
