Supervisor's remarks:
"Tech. Sgt. Sharana Fraley is a joy to work with. In addition to exemplifying the Air Force core values, she is bright, energetic and caring. As a medic, all of that matters. She does a lot of exceptional teaching and demands excellence from all her students, given the importance of self-aid buddy care and CPR training during real-world situations. Sergeant Fraley also ensures they adequately understand the material by providing hands-on practice. Her students can walk out of the classroom knowing they are equipped to save lives!" - Maj.
