The cost of a DUI
March 19, 2010
— One night, I attended a party at a friend's house. After having what I thought was a couple of drinks, I decided to drive home. More than half way home, I sped up to make a yellow light and the police pulled me over. I thought that I was fine getting through the sobriety test, and I was until the very last part. They told me to say a part of the...

To be sure,...

Mentorship grooms Airmen into leaders
February 20, 2010

While most aspects of the assessment were positive, I noted that a few of the younger Airmen in the squadron felt they had no clearly defined "mentor" available to them.

Who is your family?
February 5, 2010
— Who is your family? A common answer would be your parents, spouse, children and others who share a common ancestry. That answer is accurate, but I believe it is limiting. My preferred definition expands "family" to include those with whom I share a solemn bond and common purpose. By that definition, all of those who answer to the title of Airman...
