Erik Foss: Serving in military is family tradition

Erik Foss
March 15, 2010

MINOT AIR FORCE BASE – Being in the military is a family tradition for Erik Foss. His father and his grandfather are among family members who have also served. Foss enlisted with the North Dakota Air National Guard April 14, 2007 – before he graduated from Max High School that year. Today, Foss is a full-time training instructor for the 219th Security Forces Squad-ron, a unit of the N.D. Air National Guard, at Minot Air Force Base. On March 6, he was honored for his work with the 219th when he was presented the N.D. Air National Guard’s Outstanding Airman of the Year. His award is for an airman with the rank of airman basic to senior airman. Foss is a senior airman. He received the award at an Air Guard banquet in Moorhead, Minn. Earlier Foss was named the 219th’s Outstanding Airman of the Year and became a finalist for the wing-level award. But he didn’t know until the March 6 banquet that he had won the wing-level award.
