  • Published
Tech. Sgt. Joshua Ohl, an A-10 weapons instructor from the 372nd Training Squadron, has been named the 52nd Fighter Wing's Top Saber Performer for the week of Oct. 12 - 18.

Name: Tech. Sgt. Joshua Ohl
Unit: 372nd Training Squadron Detachment 17
Duty title: A-10 weapons instructor
Hometown: Mineral Ridge, Ohio
Years in service: 13 years
Why joined: I jointed to get out of Ohio
Family: Wife Sheila, son Kyle and daughter Kassie
Hobbies: I enjoy salmon fishing, playing poker and hiking.
Favorite aspect of job: My favorite aspect of the job is teaching others the proper way to perform all tasks required to maintain an aircraft weapons system.
Most memorable Air Force experience: My most memorable Air Force experience was watching the F-117A's return from the first mission of Operation Allied Force/Noble Anvil. After they taxied back to chalks and opened their bomb bay doors, they revealed their two empty bomb bays that previously held two 2,000 pound munitions, which I had loaded prior to its sortie. I then realized the importance of my job and my training ... because without weapons, it's just another airline!
