"I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your class this morning. I have been to several bystander training classes from other bases and the way you taught this class was much better and more memorable I honestly think that if the rest of the Air Force had instructors like you teaching this class that the overall assault rate would decline. Thank you for all that you do."
