BAGRAM AIR BASE, Afghanistan —

Being deployed to Bagram Air Base, Afghanistan, didn’t mean a Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland financial officer couldn’t get a ceremony for when he pinned on captain.

Capt. Andrew Calloway, financial services flight commander for the 502^nd Comptroller Squadron, pinned on his captain’s bars far from home May 29 while deployed to the 455^th Expeditionary Maintenance Group as the group’s executive officer.

Calloway provides support for more than 550 F-16 maintainers at the 455^th EMG who work 12- to 14-hour shifts around the clock, ensuring the effective application of airpower across the area of responsibility.
