KIRTLAND AIR FORCE BASE, N.M. -- Name: Airman 1st Class Steven Cooper

Unit: 377th Security Forces Squadron

Duty title: Installation entry controller

Job description: Control entry and exit at the instillation entry control points, preventing unauthorized access.

Hometown: Hackleburg, Ala.

Career goals: To finish CCAF and bachelor's degree in environmental science. Keep learning from mentors so when the time comes I will be prepared to mentor and lead Airman in the future. Finally, I would like to stay in the Air Force for at least 20 years and retire.

Why you enjoy being in the Honor Guard: Because it gives me the opportunity to not only give back to the veterans who have already sacrificed so much for our country, but to also give back to their families by providing a lasting impression of the Air Force for their loved ones' final resting place.
