A note from the founder

I served on active duty in the U.S. Air Force from 2001 to 2009 as a 2W0 Munitions Systems specialist and a C-130 Loadmaster. I didn't work Weather and Environmental Sciences, so this page leans on O*NET and BLS data rather than my own memories. The problem is the same, though: your experience is valuable, and it has to be written in the civilian employer's language.
