Honored Military Alumni
Brian Osborn
Class of 1976
Air Force, 20+ Years
I joined the USAF in 1978, trained and qualified as a fighter aircraft crew chief on F15 jets. I was first stationed in New Mexico (Holloman AFB) for 4 years, then separated from AF and moved back to Rock Springs. I drove the snow plow at the airport for about a year, and did some vehicle maintenance.
I re-entered the AF again in 1983, again stationed in New Mexico. After two years there I was assigned to NAS Keflavik, Iceland. I was there when Presidents Reagan and Gorbachov held their "lets be pals" summit meeting.
From Iceland I was reassigned to RAF Bentwaters/Woodbridge in the United Kingdom (England). I worked on A10 warthog aircraft there. After 3 years in England I was reassigned stateside to Tyndall AFB, Florida. I spent nearly 10 years then and retired from the Air Force in 1999.
I moved back west, to Tucson AZ, and worked at Lear Jet as a jet mechanic for three years. After the 9/11 attack times got hard in the business aircraft industry, I was laid off but luckily found the job I hold now as a project manager for Department of the Air Force at Davis-Monthan AFB in Tucson. I work at what is known as "The Bone Yard" where deactivated military aircraft are stored.
While on active duty I continued my secondary education, received an associate degree in aircraft maintenance technology. After I separted from the Air Force I completed a bachelor degree in information technology and a master's degree in business administration. Now I'm just a stressed out, burned up, fat old fart.
On days off I like to drive my jeep up into the Arizona mountains, go 4 wheeling, hike. I wish I could say fishing, but not a lot of water here.
I hope to hear from other RSHS alumi.

Mary (Lee) Johnson
Class of 1976
Air Force, 15 Years
I enlisted in the AF after college in 1980. I served as a linguist at Fort Meade, MD before being accepted to Officer Training School. I received my commission as a 2 Lt in April of 1984 and continued to work in the military intelligence field. I was stationed Fort Meade, Osan AB, South, Korea; LIndsey AS, Germany; Nellis AFB, Nev; Monterey, CA; and Shaw AFB, SC. I also spent 2 deployments in Saudi Arabia during the Gulf War (1990/91). My finaly deployment was to Zagreb, Croatia to support NATO after the Dayton Peace Accords were signed ending the hostilities in the former Yugoslavia. During my second assignment to Monterey, CA I received my master's degree and met my husband who is career Navy. We have continued to move with the Navy to Washington state; Guam; Seoul, Korea; Louisiana; Yokosuka, Japan; Omaha, Nebraska and currently reside in Singapore. I returned to school in 2006 for my teacher certification in secondary (7 -12) foreign language.
