Senior Master Sgt. Brian Fowle, 445th Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron, re-enlisted and his youngest daughter, Brenna, enlisted in the Air Force Reserve. Col. Stephen Goeman, 445th Airlift Wing commander, administered the oath of enlistment to both father and daughter Aug 25.

Sergeant Fowle, an aeromedical evacuation technician and the senior enlisted air reserve technician for AES, has 26 years of service and re-enlisted in the Air Force Reserve for four more years.

Brenna will leave for Air Force Basic Military Training in December and will be joining the 445th Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron upon her return from technical school. She graduated with honors from Tippecanoe High School, Tipp City, Ohio in May 2009.

Military service in the Fowle family is becoming a family tradition. Sergeant Fowle's wife, Melissa, is a retired senior master sergeant who served as Superintendent, 178th Aerospace Medicine Squadron, in the Air National Guard at Springfield Air National Guard Base, Ohio.

Also, his oldest daughter, Senior Airman Brianne Fowle, is an Aviation Resource Management Technician with the 445th AES and recently completed her first deployment. She is also full time student at the University of Cincinnati.

In addition, Sergeant Fowle's middle daughter, Airman Bethany Fowle, is active duty Air Force and is in technical school at Goodfellow Air Force Base as a Digital Imagery Interpreter. "She was not able to attend her sister's enlistment," said Sergeant Fowle, "but was able to see it on Facebook."

Sergeant Fowle's youngest son Brantley is still young and making decisions on career choices. "My son Brantley is 16 years old and is a junior at Tippecanoe High School. I don't want to leave him out," said Sergeant Fowle.

"We have one more to go," commented wife Melissa when speaking of their son and their desire for him to continue the family tradition.

The 445th Airlift Wing and the Air Force has benefitted from the service of this military family. Hopefully the tradition will continue when Brantley graduates from high school.
