Major Moffet was deployed to Afghanistan as the deputy commanding officer of the 3rd Battalion, Royal 22e Régiment Battle Group, from July 2007 to March 2008. His exceptional leadership on the battlefield helped save numerous lives, particularly when leading the battle group during two major combat operations in his commanding officer’s absence.
