Senior Airman Brandon Harrell is interviewed by media during Air Force Week in Cocoa Beach. The explosive ordinance technician from the 96th Civil Engineer Group represented his service Oct. 28-30 there as a hometown hero. He was recognized recently for his efforts in Afghanistan where he was fired upon when responding to an explosion of a 15-pound improvised explosive device that took two lives in 2009. The Air Force Week program is part of a proactive approach to public communication and community relations. Each Air Force week includes community visits and talks by Air Force officials, flight demonstration team performances, and displays providing a detailed look at the women and men of the United States Air Force serving on the front lines.
