WAHOO!!!


We have officially been accepted into the Air Force and we will make an appointment on Monday for MEPS= The enlisting place and become enlisted into the military. Joseph will also be taking his Physical past test and needs to swim 200 meters non stop. He is going to need your prayers there. We will know more and be enlisted soon. We feel good about being in the Air force and are excited to know more and When and Where of everything. Just thought I would let you all know. Thanks for your prayers in our behalf. We love you all!

The Airman's Creed

This is the Airman's promise to country and colleagues.

I AM AN AMERICAN AIRMAN.
I AM A WARRIOR.
I HAVE ANSWERED MY NATION'S CALL.

I AM AN AMERICAN AIRMAN.
MY MISSION IS TO FLY, FIGHT, AND WIN.
I AM FAITHFUL TO A PROUD HERITAGE,
A TRADITION OF HONOR,
AND A LEGACY OF VALOR.

I AM AN AMERICAN AIRMAN,
GUARDIAN OF FREEDOM AND JUSTICE,
MY NATION'S SWORD AND SHIELD,
ITS SENTRY AND AVENGER.
I DEFEND MY COUNTRY WITH MY LIFE.

I AM AN AMERICAN AIRMAN:
WINGMAN, LEADER, WARRIOR.
I WILL NEVER LEAVE AN AIRMAN BEHIND,
I WILL NEVER FALTER,
AND I WILL NOT FAIL.


This is the symbol for Security Forces in the Air Force that I believe Joseph will enlist for but we are going to try out for SERE=Survival Evasion Resistance Escape and hopefully make it into that career field. It is where you are an instructor for Airman on Survival skills. Security Forces he might get into the K9 unit (if SERE doesn't work out)The K9 unit are bomb and drug dogs that are amazing to work with. So those are the fields we are looking into and we will know more when we are offically enlisted.

Hooray! Let me know where you will be stationed. I'm guessing it'll be a little while before you have to move 'cause he'll have basic training first (I think). Anyway, congrats!
