Kelly McClintock

Attended Basic Training at Lackland Air Force Base, TX in 1995. From there, went to tech school to for Aeromedical Evacuation. First deployed to Oman in 2002, flying missions in and out of Afghanistan. Again in 2003, deployed to Germany to fly missions in and out of Baghdad, Iraq. In 2006, went back to Afghanistan. Flying as a Medic, I was able to see what you don't see on the news, both good and bad. I now work as an Aviation Resource Manager and looking to complete at least 20 years of service before retiring. Even though I miss the flying side of my career, I have enjoyed every minute of it.
