PORTLAND, Ore. -- The Oregon Air National Guard's 142nd Fighter Wing hosted a ceremony November 4, 2017, at the Portland Air National Guard Base, in Portland, Oregon, to present a Bronze Star medal to honor a Special Tactics Airman.

Master Sgt. Garron Dahle, with the 125th Special Tactics Squadron, has been awarded the nation's fourth highest medal before an audience of his family, friends and peers.
