00:00.897 --> 00:04.314
(uplifting guitar music)

00:13.700 --> 00:17.790
- I'm looking forward to getting
the last F-16s outta here,

00:17.790 --> 00:20.010
having the new planes come in,

00:20.010 --> 00:21.743
and training on another airframe.

00:22.840 --> 00:24.620
I was here for the
conversion from the F-4s

00:24.620 --> 00:26.830
to the original F-16s, so this

00:26.830 --> 00:29.900
is gonna be old territory for me.

00:29.900 --> 00:33.610
- I am excited to return
from medical training

00:33.610 --> 00:35.560
and spend some time with my husband

00:35.560 --> 00:37.150
in time for our anniversary.

00:37.150 --> 00:38.890
- It's to be able to sew on senior airman,

00:38.890 --> 00:41.800
as well as on the outside,

00:41.800 --> 00:44.790

sergeant today actually,

00:51.350 --> 00:55.460

supervisor for my airmen,

00:55.460 --> 01:00.460
and I want to work on
professional development.

01:00.540 --> 01:02.760
- Obviously that F-35 is gonna be coming,

01:02.760 --> 01:07.130
it's a brand new jet, and it's
gonna be completely different

01:07.130 --> 01:09.670
from the F-16 which is
30 years old, I mean

01:10.930 --> 01:12.520
that's gonna be really exciting.

01:12.520 --> 01:14.730
- Some of my goals for 2019 will

01:14.730 --> 01:17.640

01:31.110 --> 01:33.140
that's gonna come with it to Burlington.

01:33.140 --> 01:36.270
- I am starting grad school
to be a physician assistant

01:36.270 --> 01:39.960
