At the end of February I was invited to spend three days motivating the men and women of the United States Air force http://www.airforce.com/ in New Jersey. I was fortunate enough to spend my time with three great men 1st Lt. Joe Waddell (he is captain of the KC10 pictured right), 1st Lt. Jim Kolzow and 1st Lt. Stephen Latham.
We had a great time and shared some wonderful stories. It was very humbling to spend time with people who have dedicated their lives to serving us in such an amazing capacity. I will sum up my trip with the word SERVICE. These men and women truly live a life of service. Never once have I ever taken for granted the freedoms we are afforded but on my trip home I could not help but think how lucky we really are to have such a wonderful group of men and women working hard at work worth doing.
While there they took me and my old college roommate (Jess) into Philadelphia and toured Independence Hall and treated us to the most amazing Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches. And yes, I ran the steps where Rocky was filmed.
To the Red, White and Blue,
