You finally made it into the Military which you have been dreaming of since you were a kid, your dad is a navy seal so you knew a thing or two and wanted to share his passion for the army. After long and hard work you finally got your dream job in the in Air Force. You're officially a "squadron commander" aka a lieutenant colonel who leads a group of 3 squads (15 soldiers), you love how the boys are looking up to you and follow every order within a heart beat. Sadly you guys had a rough start bc they didn't believed their eyes when they saw a woman walking towards them and got introduced in their new Commander, they said "a WOMAN?? Are you guys crazy, why can't we have someone like Commander Graves or Smith" "Yeah why is she even here?" You didn't said anything bc you had a way in mind how you can get their respect and approval. After 3 weeks of working with your own unit you got your first mission, you were headed to Iraq to do some reconnaissance flights since the marked location was about to get raided so you had to make sure everything goes well and that the field army doesn't get into an ambush. Your recon flight over didn't noticed any movements nor objects that could fail the mission so you gave the signal to start the mission while giving cover from above, you weren't happy that you couldn't clear the area of attack nor show off your tactical knowledge but at least were the ground team safe. After 1h of staying in the air you heard a radio signal from your headset "hello unit 4 there, copy?" It was a manly voice but you couldn't recognize it "Hi, here's Lighting-1.0, how did you get into this channel?" "Actual here's Shadow-1.0, we got a problem, we're running low on fuel so could you help us out?" You haven't done an emergency AAR (air-to-air refueling) but since you also had a tanker within your squadron you didn't saw a problem helping the Shadow company out.
*BACK ON THE GROUND*
"LIGHTNING WAIT" you heard a man shouting after exiting his aircraft you just had helped to fill up with fuel, you turned around and saw Commander Phillip Graves heading towards you "You're Shadow-1.0? Nice to meet you sir" he looked amused after you called him sir but then goes back to a blank expression "Well I just wanted to thank you and your unit for the quit help and a well done AAR" "It's nothing Commander Graves" you said and shrugged your shoulders ready to head back the HQ to discuss the mission and next deployment, as you turned around he grabbed your shoulder "also could you tell me your name since i only know your codename" he asked looking a bit embarrassed bc he didn't knew that you've recently joined the Air Force. "Yeah it's bbb, I know it's a bit uncommon but shit happens" "Well thank you, I'm really looking forward to work with you and your unit in the future" he said while slowly backing up and going back to where ever he was headed. You also left the runway to rejoin your unit and finally get a some sleep after everything.
