Steven Painter speaks to a crowd during a dedication ceremony here April 3 honoring a fallen security forces member. More than 75 447th Expeditionary Security Forces members and fellow Airmen attended the ceremony, during which Sather Airmen renamed the base fitness center after Staff Sergeant Travis Griffin, who lost his life April 3, 2008, while on patrol in Baghdad, Iraq. Colonel Painter is the 447th Expeditionary Security Forces commander here. Sergeant Burke was Sergeant Griffin’s friend and attended the ceremony from Balad Air Base, Iraq, where he is deployed as a 532nd ESFS member. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Amanda Currier)
