Letter Factory Memorandum Example SrA Below the Zone (BTZ) Additional Justification
Key Points to Writing WRITE!!! The more you do it, the better you get. Ask for HELP, the only person looking out for #1 is you. The only person looking out for your Airmen is YOU! Use a spell checker.  F7 works good in MS Word. Use various writing resources like Merriam-Webster Online.

The following SrA Below the Zone (BTZ) example has been taken out of Word.  If you have anything you would like to submit, please do so.  If you have found this information useful, please let me know. Everyone of these letters has taken considerable amount of time to put together.  Please treat yourself to something special from one of the ads on the page.  We will both get something out of it.  (All money gathered pays for hosting fees and domain fees.  HONESTLY, when I see money come in it also prompts me to work harder on the site.)

 Note:

  This package didn't win.  Although this is a good package, the package didn't have a strong enough leadership flavor.  Still, it illustrated the whole person concept and touched on education and volunteerism. The hard part in really understanding the package maybe left in the EPR.  Without that, this only shows half of the full package.
