Staff Sgt. Robert Pensas, Master Sgt. Miguel Islas, and Senior Airman Ben Koughn present a chromed plaque they constructed by hand to Mr. William Valenzuela. Using skills and knowledge gained from working in the wing’s metals shop, the Guardsmen constructed this memento in the shape of the state and included challenge coins from various units on base. “I used to be a machinist so this means more to me than you know,” said Valenzuela.
