Brig. Gen. Matt Molloy, the 18th Wing commander, presents a $10,000 check to Stephen Tucker, an 18th Maintenance Group Air Force Engineering Technical Services lead and propulsion equipment specialist, during a team staff meeting at Kadena Air Base, Japan, May 21, 2012. Tucker, a retired chief master sergeant, received the check last month because of his submission to the IDEA program that saves the Air Force $89,000 per year in man-hours and fuel costs.
