What's your favorite thing about being in the Air Force?
The people I get to work with who are by far some of the funniest, most trustworthy people I could ever ask to work with. My second favorite thing about the Air Force is when I go home on leave; I have so many people coming up to me and saying "thank you for your service and for what you do." It really gives me a lot of pride in what I do, and it makes all the time away from friends and family seem worth it.

Supervisor quote: "Senior Airman Witter distinguished himself from his peers by being that "go-to Airman" when the task has to be done in detail and in a timely manner. Airman Witter is the flight's lead controller, trainer and security response team member. His expertise and attention to detail as a trainer led to certification of three Security force members fresh from training. He is always at the top of his game and first in line to step up to a challenge." - Staff Sgt. Sidley Young, 821st Security Forces Squadron
