"I became a volunteer firefighter two years ago just because it sounded cool, and I wanted to get involved in helping the community. I was also looking for an adrenaline rush - when somebody calls us for help, we jump in the trucks and go. Our station is one of the busier stations in the area, and most of the calls come in the evening during dinner. It does cut into personal time, but it's 100 percent worth it. The camaraderie at the station is a lot like the military lifestyle - a large majority of the volunteers are or have been active duty military - we spend so much time together training and out on calls, we get to know each other well. Another reason we have such a strong brotherhood is because our station chief and assistant chief really do a great job of pulling us together as a team, and we really look up to them as leaders." (U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Brad Adcox, NCOIC protocol and public affairs from the 93d Air Ground Operations Wing)

“Being Command Post you see everything that happens. The first 10 minutes after an incident are the most chaotic -- we’re busy calling and notifying everyone to get the ball rolling. You get to see so much more than the average Airmen. Even as a young Airman – I see the bigger picture. Every incident that happens comes across this desk. I love how involved in the mission we are specifically with search and rescues. We are the initial notification and precoordination that ends in a life being saved. I remember the first search and rescue I helped coordinate – from here I helped save a life in Utah. In the two years I’ve been at Moody, a lot of interesting things have happened. It is just a great feeling of mission accomplishment ... It’s just awesome.” (Senior Airman William Ferris, Command Post controller from the 23d Wing)

"Spirituality is transcendent in nature. We understand that not everyone see themselves in the same way on a spiritual plane but the way we see spirituality suggests it taps into the very essence of life. There is something about the spiritual nature of a person that invariably affects their resiliency and we see our role as very vital to the strength and well-being of all our Airmen." "Oh, without a doubt working with people who are in a crisis, on a one-on-one and seeing a little bit of that burden lifted off their shoulders as they walk out is a good feeling." "As the senior religious support team ... we don't do anything in isolation when it comes to our delivery of spiritual care. We are almost like conjoined twins." (Lt. Col. Kim Bowen and Master Sgt. John Davis, senior religious support team from the 23d Wing Chapel)

"I started doing automotive in high school. I just fell in love with the concept of working on engines or vehicles so when I joined I knew it was either going to be vehicle or jets. I prefer jets a lot better. The process takes about 28 days and putting it all back together is my favorite part. It makes you really think about what you're doing - about actually doing it right because if you mess up - it's a life that's flying this jet. It keeps you on your toes all the time. It's just awesome to do!" (U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Lance Morrison, aerospace propulsion journeyman from the 23d Component Maintenance Squadron)
