[September 09, 2009]  MOUNT PULASKI -- Army Maj. Stan Manes, who was raised and schooled in Mount Pulaski, recently received the Bronze Star.

The following is copied from the inscription on his award:

Maj. Stanley Manes received the Bronze Star for exceptionally meritorious service while deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom as the Executive Officer, RPAC-Kabul and Commander's Action Group Planner for the Commanding General, Combined Security Transaction Command - Afghanistan (CST-A).

Major Manes's mission focus and technical expertise were key factors in CSTC-A, successfully executing its mission throughout the entire area of operations. Major Manes conducted combat operations and coordinated and synchronized Commander's action group actions throughout the combat theater of operations.

His performance of duty in a combat zone reflects great credit upon himself, the combined Security Transition Command - Afghanistan, The United State Central Command, and the United States Army.
