SPC Charles Brown
Thanks Captain Roland. I am hoping, I have 2 granddaughters who are in ROTC in High School. One of them has mentioned that she may be interested in going into the Air Force when she graduates.

Congratulations, CPL Brown! An honorable lineage with aspiring grand-daughters! My son turns 18 next month, the week before I get R&R. He's either looking to go into the Army's Warrant Flight Program, or the USAF. Big question is the timing... he was dual-enrolled this semester, so unsure if he's going to knock out college first. We'll see! Congrats, again!

I had a great uncle who served in the USAF as a bomber pilot in WWII and an uncle (WO Larus Wayne Roland) KIA in Vietnam. Salute and respect go out to those who have served and those who have Fallen! Thank you for your Service and your Sacrifice!
