CMSgt Robert Santos provided Retiree News the following photographs and comments.

Mahalo & Aloha to SMSgt Nathan H. Koide who has faithfully served our nation and state in USAF, the Air Force Reserves and HIANG for 39 years and 10 months. He is officially retired as the KC-135 Inspection Section Supervisor.

SMSgt Koide continually improved the KC-135 periodic scheduled Inspection process with constant reduction in resources while performing twice as many inspections as his Air National Guard counter parts. SMSgt Koide has mentored many with his no nonsense approach and always doing the right thing for the right reasons.

Congratulations and Happy Retirement!
