Tayyib Mubarak Rashid

He was with US Marine Corp (Active Duty) from Jan 1997 thru Jan 2002. His military occupation was MOS 6484 ECM Tech.  He worked on, and later was incharge of the work center that worked on all sorts of avionics assets from the Electronic countermeasures fighter EA6-B, otherwise known as the Prowler.  His work center repaired equipment from that plan ranging from Radar systems to Universal Exciters and everything in between.  The plane is used as an offensive weapon, and a squadron of these planes is sent in first before the jet fighters that carry all the explosives.  The main purpose of this plane is to electronically blind the enemy by disrupting ALL enemy electronic communications.  It has gigantic amplifiers that produces radio frequency at such a high wattage that the receiving mechanisms of the enemy communication systems overload thereby making everything from cell-phones to radars completely useless while the prowlers are on the attack.

Deployments included 1999 Aviano, Italy -- supporting the operations in Kosovo just a couple of hundred miles away.  2000 Prince Sultan Air Base, Saudi Arabia -- Operation Southern Watch over Iraq -- This was the time that the USS Cole was bombed in the Arabian Sea.  2001 Sembach, Germany -- He was there during September 11th.

Medals and Honors included Rifle Expert Marksmanship Badge (3rd award), Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal (Saudi Arabia), Kosovo Campaign Medal (Aviano), Marine Corps Good Conduct Medal, Navy Unit Commendation W/1 star.  Meritorious Promotions from Private to PFC (boot camp), Lance Corporal to Corporal (corporal school), last rank Sergeant.
