Key Points to Writing
- WRITE!!! The more you do it, the better you get.
- Ask for HELP, the only person looking out for #1 is you.
- The only person looking out for your subordinates is YOU!
- Use a spell checker. F7 works well in MS Word.
- Use Merriam-Webster Online
to improve your vocabulary.

The following Example has been taken from an AF1206 - IMT 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.)

Very good package showing a lot of
leadership and leadership potential. I question the bullet in blue because
it is a hard statistic to validate. Unless the board reads the Airman's
Almanac or
http://www.au.af.mil/au/ccaf/public_affairs/new_stats.php
it is hard to prove. In addition, there are no numbering or
spelling errors, but I do question what C2D is... Command and Control
