Dec. 18, 2020 | By Jennifer-Leigh Oprihory
The Air Force Weapons School has recognized Capt. Woodruff “Thunder†Johnson, an F-15E weapons officer assigned to the 494th Fighter Squadron at RAF Lakenheath, U.K., with its 2020 Robbie Risner Award.
The annual award—whose namesake, Brig. Gen. James Robinson “Robbie†Risner, was the first living service member to receive the Air Force Cross—recognizes the Weapons School alumnus who makes the greatest contribution to USAF’s combat capability in the year following his or her graduation from the elite institution.
In this case, it recognized Johnson’s leadership from the time he departed Nellis in the pre-pandemic days of 2019 through June 2020.
