MOUNTAIN HOME AIR FORCE BASE, Idaho --  Senior leaders with the 366th Comptroller Squadron recently selected the following individual as their warrior of the week. The recognition program highlights members of the 366th Fighter Wing who make significant contributions to their unit and the base.

Senior Airman Jamie Riggs

Unit and duty title: 366th CPTS knowledge operations manager

Time in Air Force: Three years and 10 months

Time at Mountain Home Air Force Base: One year

Hometown: Newport News, Va.

Hobbies: "Spending time with my family and friends, shopping, dancing and making others laugh."

What service does Airman Riggs provide to the Gunfighters? "I review, process and track 142 evaluations and decorations for the 366th CPTS and the 366th FW staff, guaranteeing that all are written and processed correctly and on time. I'm also the functional area records manager for the FW staff. I coordinate and work with all of the record custodians to make sure their records are kept to specifications. I also do all the inspections semi-annually."

Most memorable Air Force moment. "I showed up to basic training with blonde hair, my training instructor told me to go to the hair salon ASAP to get it back to my natural color, brown. Turns out, the stylist didn't know that putting black hair color on blonde hair makes it green. This made graduating basic training the most memorable moment for me because I was very proud of myself and all that I had achieved even though I still had green hair."

Interesting personal fact: "I was selected as 'most likely to succeed' and 'best dressed' in my 2005 high school graduating class.'"

Why does Airman Riggs deserve to be a warrior of the week? "Airman Riggs is an integral member of our team. She provides outstanding support as the commander's executive assistant where she has created and implemented several innovative automation tools to improve the timeliness of performance reports, awards and decorations. Recently, Airman Riggs facilitated the administrative merger of the 366th CPTS and 366th FW staff."
