New commander, who dis? 📱

It’s Lt. Col. Douglas Kottraba! 👏

Col. Landon Quan presided over the 11th ATKS change of command ceremony where Kottraba assumed command from Lt. Col. Nathaniel Dull! Dull was presented a Meritorious Service Award before receiving his final salute from the squadron. 🫡

Although Kottraba received his first salute as the new commander, he’s not new to leading within the unit! Before assuming command, Kottraba served as the 11th ATKS director of operations. 💪

The 11th ATKS was the first unit to operate remotely piloted aircraft for the Air Force, now assigned to the 25th ATKW, they provide support with conventional MQ-9 operations for the U.S. Air Force across the globe. 🔱

When the environment gets extreme, the mission doesn’t stop. 💥

The crushed a first-ever training event by successfully launching an MQ-9 Reaper during a simulated scenario all while operating in full MOPP gear…talk about next-level readiness! 🚀

This wasn’t your average training day. Airmen suited up in full gear and proved they can still get the mission done under adverse conditions in contested environments. The result? Stronger readiness, sharper skills, and a squadron ready to operate anytime, anywhere - no matter the environment.
