Vetrans Day

Saturday was Veterans Day and we are both veterans from the Air Force.

Captain Jacquelyn Swift entered the Air Force in September 1978.  She was a Cost Analysis Officer and served at Los Angeles AFS in California and then McConnell AFB in Kansas.

Captain Douglas Swift entered the Air Force on June 1, 1977 after attending the United States Air Force Academy.  He was an Astronautical Engineer and served at Williams Air Force Base in Airzona and then Los Angeles AFS in California.

Also Loren Keith Swift was a veteran in the Army Air Corps and was a bombardier.  Nathanael is a JAG in the the Army right now and will be a veteran when he gets out.  Below are some old photos.

 This is us at a formal military function in our official Mess Dress uniforms.

Lt. Swift's professional records photo.  Doesn't she look fabulous.

There were a lot of restaurants that were offering free food to veterans to honor those that served, so this year we decided to take them up on it.  It was really nice of them and we went to a variety of places on Friday and Sunday and both got to eat for free.  It was fun.  Thank you to those establishments.
