Brenna Matthies  - Air Force, E-4 Sr Airman
Crew Chief (Aerospace Maintenance Technician)

Wearing an Air Force uniform came early for me,  first as a Civil Air Patrol Cadet in my early teens, second as an ROTC Cadet in High School, and then ultimately joining the Air Force in 1991 after High School graduation. Entering the Service as an Aerospace Maintenance Technician responsible for maintaining KC-135A/R, E-8CJSTARS, and C-130 model Aircraft. Tours included- Desert Storm/Shield Riyadh Saudi Arabia, Bosnia, England, Germany, South America, Bahrain, and Italy.

Riding a motorcycle started much sooner, at the age of 5 with a Kawasaki 50 - Though I have had some gaps in my riding over the years, lately I have been averaging around 9000 miles each summer. I find that long cross-country road trips quiet the mind and are the best therapy.

Married to my best friend, Todd for the last 30 years. Three cats and Bassett Hound, Bullitt, we are a Gear Head, Hot Rod, All-American Family. If it has an engine, I will tear it down, build it, and drive it!!
