What Was Your Most Proud Moment From Your Military Service? What Made This Especially Memorable For You?
Of all my experiences, sounding Taps at military funerals remains the most poignant and memorable. And it’s an experience that continues to this day, 30 years after my time in the Air Force. As a woman in service, it was particularly meaningful to be entrusted with this solemn duty. The military has changed significantly over the years, and I’m proud to have played a part in that evolution. The emotion in the air is still palpable grief, gratitude, and a profound sense of loss. Each time I play, whether for an active duty member or a veteran, I’m struck by the weight of their sacrifice. It’s a deeply emotional connection, one that has only deepened over the years, solidifying my understanding of the true cost of freedom and the importance of honoring those who serve. It’s a privilege to continue this tradition, representing not only the Air Force but also the growing number of women who contribute so much to our armed forces.
