Veteran’s Day!
Derek stopped by the fourth grade classrooms on Veterans Day, November 10, to meet the kids and explain a bit about what it means to serve in the military and what military life is like in the Air Force. He shared about high expectations in basic training, the importance of honoring the chain of command, and encouraged the kids to try their hardest in school – even if it isn’t their favorite thing – so they will be prepared to support themselves after graduation. The kids enjoyed seeing a ‘real soldier’ and they all had fun doing push-ups with Derek to wrap-up his visit. Derek is an Airman First Class with the US Air Force, stationed at Moody Air Force Base in Georgia.
