What do you like about working at the 445th?

I enjoy the camaraderie within the 445th. I work with amazing Airmen who genuinely care and want the best for each other. We all drive our fellow wingman to be better, and I have benefited from this work environment greatly. Any success I've had in my career until this point is all due to the great supervisors I've had, mentors, and fellow junior enlisted who I work beside every day.

 

Why did you join the Air Force?

I joined the Air Force for not only the sense of brotherhood but also to be challenged. Every Air Force commercial has that slogan, "I can be anything I want to be in the military" and that was my mindset and motivation to join.
