It's the pride in knowing your country needs you and has trained you to answer its call. And in a small, small way, you know you are giving back to the country that allowed you to grow up in freedom. I could not be more proud to be an Air Force officer and an AmeriCorps alum!" She currently sits on the leadership council of the Washington, D.C. chapter of AmeriCorps Alums.
