U.S. Air Force Col. Tod Fingal, 414th Combat Training Squadron commander, presents the Distinguished Flying Cross decoration to Lt. Col. Daren Sorenson, 414 CTS director of staff, during a presentation ceremony, March 2, 2012 at Nellis Air Force Base, Nev. Sorenson received the decoration for his actions while flying an F-15E Strike Eagle in eastern Afghanistan. He led a formation of aircraft, providing close air support to coalition forces ambushed in a remote mountain district. At great personal risk, Sorenson and his wingmen destroyed an enemy force and a cave complex used as their regional base of operations, saving the lives of about 50 soldiers.
