We're 3 00:00:06,184 --> 00:00:08,351 actually a detachment from the rest of 4 00:00:08,351 --> 00:00:10,573 our squadron and we're conducting agile 5 00:00:10,573 --> 00:00:12,851 combat employment across the EU are uh , 6 00:00:12,851 --> 00:00:15,073 we're doing this so that we can support 7 00:00:15,073 --> 00:00:14,990 the C facts intent throughout the A .

I 13 00:00:28,090 --> 00:00:30,257 didn't know I want to be a pilot until 14 00:00:30,257 --> 00:00:31,979 uh pretty much I put in my job 15 00:00:31,979 --> 00:00:33,979 preferences for the Air Force . And 16 00:00:33,979 --> 00:00:36,090 then once I started flying , that was 17 00:00:36,090 --> 00:00:38,034 the moment I knew I wanted to be a 18 00:00:38,034 --> 00:00:39,868 fighter pilot . There's a lot of 19 00:00:39,868 --> 00:00:42,034 training sorties in grade sheets along 20 00:00:42,034 --> 00:00:44,257 the way , but it was all worth it . And 21 00:00:44,257 --> 00:00:46,312 just getting to enjoy the craft that 22 00:00:46,312 --> 00:00:48,090 you finally have reached . It's 23 00:00:48,090 --> 00:00:50,312 something that you want to do . It just 24 00:00:50,312 --> 00:00:52,534 takes a lot of hard work and dedication 25 00:00:52,534 --> 00:00:54,590 and really the sky is the limit with 26 00:00:54,590 --> 00:00:58,220 who can find themselves here . There 27 00:00:58,220 --> 00:01:00,331 are a lot more people rooting for you 28 00:01:00,331 --> 00:01:02,498 than you anticipate . The Air Force is 29 00:01:02,498 --> 00:01:04,553 making a huge push to make it easier 30 00:01:04,553 --> 00:01:07,920 for women to fly . This community is 31 00:01:07,930 --> 00:01:10,041 really special in the fact that we go 32 00:01:10,041 --> 00:01:12,208 through unique challenges together and 33 00:01:12,208 --> 00:01:14,041 we all support one another to an 34 00:01:14,041 --> 00:01:16,770 extreme amount . So it really , it 35 00:01:16,770 --> 00:01:18,714 doesn't feel like a huge sacrifice 36 00:01:18,714 --> 00:01:20,548 because we get to show up and do 37 00:01:20,548 --> 00:01:22,230 something that we love every day okay .
