Relisting for the last time!

After three years at Elmendorf AFB TSgt Moulton had to begin think about the rest of his time in the Air Force. Jason had graduated high school, Krystal was a junior, Taylor was in 8th grade and Lyndy was working on her medical assistance certification.  A lot to think about when you need to decide the next steps in his Air Force journey.

He made a shift to a new unit called 525 Fighter Squadron. The combat-ready fighter squadron is prepared for rapid worldwide deployment of a squadron of F-22A Raptor aircraft to accomplish precision engagement of surface targets using a wide variety of conventional air-to-surface munitions. The 525th FS trains in the fighter missions of strategic attack, interdiction, offensive counterair (air-to-surface), suppression of enemy air defenses, as well as offensive and defensive counterair (air-to-air).

 

Soon after joining the Bull Dogs he decided to re-enlist for the last time! He would be able to extended his stay at Elmendorf AFB so Krystal could graduate high school and Lyndy could finish school. They were all excited and our country was lucky to have his hard work, loyalty and much more!

Epic Relocation 2012!!!

Hello,

          My names Jason F Moulton, son of MSgt Michael Paul Moulton II. Throughout my dad’s 24 years in the service. I am lucky to say I was a part of 22 years of it. Throughout my childhood ever since I can remember my farther has always been there for me and our family. No matter the distance he found a way to be there even if he wasn’t physically there in person. Growing up as a military brat has its up and downs. I have learned so much growing that I honestly can say wouldn’t have been made possible as a civilian. One of those key aspects of what I have learned was how to be a leader not a follower. One major example of this was deployment. Having to leave the family for long periods of time required me to step up and look after everyone while he was gone. 

          Throughout the 22 years of being a part of my dad’s military career I have moved around a lot. These relocations can be fun and very stressful. One example of it being fun, say you don’t like the new base your at? Eventually you kinda know that this isn’t very permanents. Now on the other hand if you happen to find a base you do like don’t get to attached because remember it’s not permanent. We have moved around a lot as a family and they all hold a fair amount of epic stories but relocation of 2012 takes the cake. 

          It all started July 1st 2012, as we ventured throughout Alaska we finally made it to Canada! How about them gas prices per liter??? How about the Edmonton mall??? Been there 2 times and every time there was something new to do. After leaving Edmonton and heading off to try and reach the border into the United States. My brother and I watched as a wheel rolled off the camper. We then pulled over and radio to mom and my sister ahead that we lost a tire. Obviously they didn’t hear it due to not having cellphones and using walkie talkies. crap the studs are stripped not like we can just put the spare on and continue our journey. I hiked to the nearest RV store some 2 or 3 miles away. We meet this awesome Canadian guy who took me all around town and finally found the parts I needed. Got the studs punched out. New studs back in, also found the old tire that rolled off. Later caught back up with mom and my sister and continued our venture to the United States!!!

Cannon Air Force Base, New Mexico

SSgt Moulton arrived in Cannon AFB in  New Mexico and began working with the 523d Fighter SQ Crusaders. He was responsible to weapons superintendent for all armament systems maintenance and loading operations on 20 523d Aircraft Maintenance Unit F-16C/D aircraft valued in excess of 700 million! 

The 523d Fighter Squadron was known as the "Crusaders". Its primary mission was to maintain a continuous ability to rapidly deploy and support American unified commanders worldwide with day or night F-16C combat operations. They are committed to decisively employing the F-16C throughout the entire spectrum of offensive and defensive missions, including air interdiction, close air support, forward air control, strategic attack and counter-air, through employing a wide variety of conventional, precision-guided and nuclear weapons.



 I am amazed at these aircraft! It truly takes a team to ensure they are ready to defend anytime, 24/7!
