Mr. David G. Brown, Strategic Command Consultation (SCC) Committee member (standing, second from right), provides remarks during an award ceremony honoring the 341st Missile Wing at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Mont., March 30, 2016. During the ceremony, Brown and U.S. Navy Adm. Cecil D. Haney, U.S. Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) commander (seated left), presented the 2015 Omaha Trophy, ICBM category, to U.S. Air Force Col. John T. Wilcox II, 341st Missile Wing commander (seated right) and Team Malmstrom, in recognition of the wing's contributions to USSTRATCOM's global strategic missions. The Omaha Trophy, which dates back to the U.S. Air Force's Strategic Air Command, was originally created by the SCC in 1971. At the time, a single trophy was presented annually as a token of appreciation to USSTRATCOM's best wing. Since then, the tradition has evolved to unit-level awards that recognize the command's premier intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) wing, ballistic missile submarine, strategic bomber wing and global operations (space/cyberspace) unit. This year, a new category was added to include the combatant command's top strategic aircraft wing. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman Daniel Brosam)
