Distinguished Flying Cross Awarded to Cobb Air Force Major
Maj. Adam Haas, a flight nurse with the 94th Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron, was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross with a Combat Device for his bravery during the Afghanistan evacuation in 2021. The award ceremony took place at Dobbins Air Reserve Base before over 200 airmen and airwomen, with Maj. Gen. Melissa Coburn presenting the medal. The Combat Device signifies actions under combat conditions, making Haas’ dual recognition exceptionally rare.
During the mission, Haas and his team provided medical aid to victims of a suicide bombing at Kabul International Airport. The attack killed 107 Afghans and 13 U.S. service members amid the U.S. military’s withdrawal from Afghanistan. Entering unsecured, hostile areas, Haas directed the largest aeromedical evacuation in Kabul Coalition Hospital’s history, ensuring the safety of his team and patients. Reflecting on the mission, Haas humbly credited his team and said his focus remained on helping those in need.
