One Luke Airman's path to self-acceptance
Staff Sgt. KC Zens, 372nd Training Squadron, Detachment 12 F-35 avionics instructor, teaches a mock class with Tech. Sgt. Jordan Simon, 372nd TRS, Det. 12 F-16/F-35 weapons instructor, posing as a student July 12, 2021, at Luke Air Force Base, Arizona. Instructors often sharpen each other’s skills in the classroom, giving thoughtful critiques as well as thought-out questions to help one another grow. Zens, a transgender Airman, transitioned while serving in the Air Force and educates other Airmen about his journey. Diversity and inclusion is imperative for the Air Education and Training Command and strengthens the Air Force as a whole. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class David Busby)
