Staff Sgt. Rosa Blackdeer, 332nd Expeditionary Medical Squadron medical technician: "Although I was a junior in high school, Sept. 11 opened my eyes to the possibility of joining the military. After graduation, the war on terrorism was still strong. Even though there were protesters who didn’t support the war, I felt it was my duty to do something as an American citizen. Six years later, I’m still in the Air Force and in Balad supporting freedom.” (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Christopher Hubenthal)
