    This morning was the first time after 23yrs that I am just a civilian. My effective retirement date was April 21st, 2018.

    I am 41yrs old and have been in the USAF for 23yrs. For more than half of my life, the USAF is all I’ve known. It will be a difficult transition, but it is one I am 100% ready to make.

    To the men and women of all services who continue to serve, Godspeed
