- Use a spell checker. F7 works real
fast in MS Word.
- Use various writing resources like Merriam-Webster Online
to improve your vocabulary.

NOTE:
Air Force Reserve and Guard writing styles differ considerably to
Active Duty, mainly do to AD constant changing political environment
(IMHO). The package here would fail AF AD styles for mainly one
reason. It contains complete sentences. (But, it fits perfectly into both
Army and Navy writing styles) Regardless, it is a good example of what
supervisors face in a Joint environment and adds insight on what to look for.
