To: Whom it May Concern
From: <SUPERVISOR’S NAME>
Subject: Recommendation for
[First Last Name]
I have had the good fortune of working with
[First Last Name] from 16 November 2005,
until 1 October 2006 while he was fulfilling man days as a Reservist for the 512
Component Repair Squadron Dover AFB, Dover Delaware. During this time I was his
direct superior in the capacity of Swing Shift Supervisor of Aircraft Fuel
Systems Maintenance. I found <FNAME> to be a very
diligent worker who truly lived the Air Force core values of Integrity First,
Service Before Self, and Excellence in All we Do.
It is my personal feeling, with 14 years of active military service that in a
time of war I would chose <FNAME> to go with me to
defend the United States of America. I would have neither doubt nor second
thought in his capabilities, loyalty, and dedication.
If there is any questions of comments that I can help with pertaining to
[First Last Name] please contact me at (###)

Thank you for your time and consideration,
[First M. Last Name]
Computer Operations Shift Supervisor
