The following Example has been taken out of IMT viewer so the formatting
might be off. I did not changed mission information,
only names to protect myself and the
people I have received the information from. If
you have anything you would like to
submit, please do so.
If
you have found this information useful, please let me know. Everyone of these
letters has taken considerable amount of time to put together. Please
treat yourself to something special from one of the ads on the page. We
will both get something out of it. (All money gathered pays for
hosting fees and domain fees. HONESTLY, when I see money come in it also
prompts me to work harder on the site.)

Note:
Very good package and the package read well. The package contained a lot
of quantification by utilizing time savings. There was only one
spelling error, (falled should be
fall) and some numbering errors.
The numbering errors are very common in Air Force Writing as one can see within
the examples on the site. The key to numbering can be simple. All
numbers under 10 are spelled out unless they have to do with time, then use the
numeric form. (The basis for
the correction is derived from the Tongue and
Quill) |
