Behny wins AFRC honors Published Feb. 6, 2007 By Tech. Sgt. Doug Hays 434th Air Refueling Wing Public Affairs GRISSOM AIR RESERVE BASE, Ind. -- Being the gold standard is how Judi Behny's supervisor describes the financial quality assurance specialist. The Air Force Reserve Command describes her as the Quality Assurance Manager of the Year for the installation level. Mrs. Behny, a Denver, Ind., resident, works closely with 434th Air Refueling Wing personnel to ensure those with government travel cards keep their accounts current. As a result, the number of card delinquencies and the dollars associated with them was significantly reduced from previous years. "I do my best to stress the importance of meeting goals set forth by higher headquarters within the comptroller organization and the government travel card program," she said. "Thanks to the continued support of comptroller and wing personnel, these goals are realized." "Judi has one of the best track records in the command relative to monthly and quarterly financial report submissions," said Mike Ayers, comptroller. "There is no other QA manager in the command that has the breadth of experience that she has." She provides comprehensive oversight of travel, military pay, civilian pay and accounting liaison operations. Despite continued changeover of personnel and increased operations tempo supporting the Air Force mission in the global war on terror, Mrs. Behny managed and saw improved accuracy and timeliness of payment for government travel payments, Mr. Ayers said. "Her expertise and no-nonsense approach are the tools that she brings to bear on problem identification and resolution," he added. "Her programs are known to be the best and she is the person other units turn to for help when questions or problems arise in a quality assurance program. Without a doubt, she's the best in the business."
