What do you like about working at the 445th?: Working at the 445th is like one big family. I have had the privilege to work with so many people from so many different backgrounds. Whether it’s working together in the Honor Guard or running into them while on a deployment, it’s very comforting when you don’t have to worry about who you’re working with. You just trust that it’s going to be fun and done well, no matter what.
