The Maintenance Effectiveness Awards are presented annually to recognize the most outstanding maintenance units based on unit mission accomplishments, effective use of maintenance resources, innovative management accomplishments and quality of life programs during the past fiscal year.

"I am very proud of the professional work ethic the 325th MXS 'Jake Warriors' displayed during fiscal year 2012," said Maj. Shawnn Martin, 325th MXS commander. "Each Airman was instrumental in our squadron earning this prestigious award. We look forward to competing amongst the MAJCOMs for an Air Force win."
