ANDERSEN AIR FORCE BASE, Guam --  ANDERSEN AIR FORCE BASE, Guam - Senior Airman John Silvi, 644th Combat Communications Squadron radio frequency transmission systems journeyman was awarded Team Andersen's Best June 22.
 
Airman Silvi installed, operated and maintained equipment valued at more than 6 Million, providing wideband, satellite and ground radio communications systems directly supporting Pacific Air Forces.

"During Airman Silvi's tour at Andersen he deployed in support of Operation Trident Reach, delivering global satellite communications services instrumental to the success of the United States Africa Command's intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance mission," said Staff Sgt. Joshua Lehne, Airman Silvi's supervisor.

Additionally, Airman Silvi's professionalism and performance were key to joint and combined exercises.

Airman Silvi participates in squadron softball, football, basketball and coaches Andersen youth tee ball. He also recently completed all requirements for his Community College of the Air Force degree.

Andersen's Best is a recognition program which highlights a top performer from the 36th Wing. Each week, supervisors nominate a member of their team for outstanding performance and the wing commander presents the selected Airman/civilian with an award.
