I jsut need to blow my own horn here. And I'm going to exaggerate and be a little bit obnoxious...

I'm a decorated war hero! That's right! This girl was put in for an award back when she was in Kuwait for just being awesome! I didn't know if I had gotten since they said we should find out in the past Feb but I didn't hear anything so I figured I didn't get it and then I was presented it today at work! We had a commander's call and the squadron commander presented me with the award! They read out all of my achievements (it's just an achievement medal, nothing fancy) and so yeah.... I'm a war hero... if only in my own mind! haha!

Oh and to put the icing on the cake today, I Initiated my separation from the Air Force today!!!! woo, its like putting my two weeks notice, though I won't leave until my time in October, but this jsut lets the AF know that I won't be re-enlisting. Such a weight off my shoulders!

On a different note, we had a briefing today by the base commander today, a 1 star about the Don't Ask Don't Tell Repeal policy change. It's just the start of that whole process but its a step in the right direction! thought some of you might be interested in that!
