Justin Beasley

Justin works as an EOD Flight Chief at Ramstein AB, Germany where he says, “Leading these EOD technicians is easy as they are extremely adaptive and capable of solving complex problems that arise. I’m very proud to be part of the team. During a deployment to Afghanistan, Beasley’s convoy ran over an improvised explosive device, with him narrowly escaped the ensuing firefight. This led to a traumatic brain injury and long-term hearing loss. During that deployment, then Senior Airman Beasley conducted 82 combat missions during which, he cleared 51 improvised explosive devices, 2,200 pounds of explosives and spearheaded the destruction of 184 enemy weapons and 1,100 pounds of explosives. He also trained 125 coalition forces soldiers on IED tactics, techniques and procedures. In 2012, Justin was awarded the United Service Organizations of North Carolina Spirit of Freedom for outstanding service in his profession both stateside and overseas.
