Little late to introducing myself but anyway. My name is Andrew and I'm an Airman First Class (A1C) in the United States Air Force filling a role in Combat Camera Squadron. My original dream was to be a pilot, I think many of us had dreams of becoming pilots after all the cool movies throughout the childhood. My vision did hold me back and I couldn't get myself to ever do the laser vision correction. However, I found the second best thing, working as a photographer in the military. Photography was always my hobby but I would never imagine it becoming the main part of my life. Photography has allowed me to live through an unbelievable experience in the military. A lot of the time, I ride along in refueling aircraft, observing and documenting the job of boom operators. I often imagine myself being in the seat of the pilot but this is not bad either.

I will often post photos and videos from my colleagues across different branches. From Marines to the Air Force.

Most of the photos and videos published on this channel are released under Public Domain but sometimes I will post interesting news or photos with credit. Steem users are more than welcome to use photos and videos released under Public Domain for their projects. Credit is not necessary but is sure appreciated.
Overall, steem is a great platform and hopefully I can fill the military section in the platform.
