Record Text
I recommend SGT Starling for an Army Achievement Award for his actions in Operation Stoneless Kingdom for his actions as the FO for Widowmakers Platoon. SGT Starling used multiple Artillery missions and 3CAB assets to eliminate enemy armor and IDF assets prior to Widomakers arrival to OBJ Tokyo. His actions led to the destruction of a Mortar Platoon, two enemy T-90 A's, and at least two BRM-1K Reconnaissance BMP’s. His expertise, knowledge, and dedication are in keeping with the highest military traditions and reflect great credit upon himself, First Platoon Widowmakers, Alpha Company Wareagles, and the 3rd Infantry Division.

46R(Broadcast Combat Journalist) - For continued service and dedication over the course of September 2023 to September 2024. Sergeant Jake Starling has shown with irrefutable evidence that proper communication, planning, organization, and leading from the front can pay off. Being able to learn from his team, and working together has shown that in the absence of higher leadership, the social media entertainment from our YouTube channel will never falter. For these actions, I am proud to award Sergeant Starling with the Joint Service Commendation Medal
