Technical Sgt. Kenneth James is the 459th Air Refueling Wing Warrior of the Month for May 2024. In regard to his service, he says "After serving 12 years active-duty Air Force, I joined the Reserve to continue service and begin a civilian career in the federal government. The Reserve allowed more flexibility with family while maintaining the camaraderie that comes second nature in the military. Personally, drill weekends are a time to build with troops, stay proficient in standards, and share my experiences/knowledge with others. In pursuit of work/life balance, I founded a DJ business."
