MCCHORD FIELD, JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, Wash. -- Team McChord,

It is my distinct pleasure to recognize our newest graduates from the Forrest L. Vosler Non-Commissioned Officer Academy at Peterson AFB, Co. Before these students left, I was able to speak to them as a group. At this meeting, I stressed the importance of working and graduating as a team and representing McChord in a professional and dignified manner. Before members of Class 10-7 left my office, we took a group picture and emailed it to each of them with the hope that all in the picture would be walking across the stage at graduation. For Class 10-7, there were three award winners as well: TSgt Chad Graham (62 AMXS) won the Commandant's Award as well as Distinguished Graduate honors; TSgt Nicholas Wise (5 ASOS) Distinguished Graduate honors; and TSgt Oshawn Jefferson (62 AW/PA) Distinguished Graduate honors. More importantly, here is the distinguished list of graduates from both classes...very well done and congratulations!
