Air Force and Air Force Association officials have named Air Force Office of Special Investigations as the 2008 Team of the Year. Each year, the AFA, working with major command level command chief master sergeants and the Office of the Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force, selects a specific Air Force career field for this recognition.

Bruce, commander of the 28th SFS, was recognized for his efforts as team chief of the Salah ad Din Provincial Police Transition Team and the commander of a detached unit in Iraq.

Williams, operations superintendent of the 28th SFS, received an oak leaf cluster to go with the Bronze Star that he received for valor in Iraq in 2005. He received the cluster for his work during a subsequent tour, during which he served as a police transitions team operations superintendent, managing more than 200 military and civilian members and helping to develop the Iraqi police service.

Barry, the operation section chief of the 28th SFS, earned his award for his activities as a logistics NCO in charge and a first sergeant in Tikrit, Iraq.
