Maj. Gen. Matthew Glavy, talks to a crowd about Capt. Peter Abramovs during an awards ceremony aboard Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C., July 28, 2017. Abramovs was awarded the Air Medal for heroism while training at Marine Corps Training Area Bellows, O’ahu, Hawai’i, on May 17, 2015. While conducting MV-22 Osprey training exercises, an aircraft conducted a hard landing at the training area, May 17, 2015. Although wounded during the hard landing, Abramovs returned to the downed aircraft multiple times in order to evacuate and aid his fellow Marines. Glavy is the commanding general of 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, and Abramovs is an AV-8B Harrier II pilot with Marine Attack Squadron 231, Marine Aircraft Group 14, 2nd MAW.
