the above item was merely a bit of creative fiction inspired by a photograph, but the woman pictured here, Senior Airman Polly-Jan Bobseine, is indeed a Security Forces Squadron fire team
member with the U.S. Air Force (USAF). The original photograph and its USAF-assigned caption are as shown below: > Senior Airman Polly-Jan Bobseine, 823rd Security Forces Squadron >
