F-16 pilot receives Kolligian safety award
Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Norton Schwartz assisted by Koren Kolligan presents Lt. Col. Booth M. Johnston with the Koren Kolligian Jr. Safety Award June 16. He received the award for an October 2007 incident in which he suffered a severe back and neck injury during a high-G maneuver. Despite the near total loss of use and lack of sensation in his hands and feet, Colonel Johnston was eventually able to level the aircraft and land at Ellington Field, Texas.
