Steve Nutt and his wife, Brittany Nutt, de-
cided they were ready for a change.

“I was working multiple jobs, only getting
a couple hours of sleep a night,” Steve said.
“My wife was teaching, working in a pharma-
cy and trying to get into physician assistant
school. One tax season, we got a tax bill for
about $1,200, and we didn’t have anything.
We ended up paying it, but we were eating
peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for a few
months straight.”

For the Nutt family, working hard with
little payoff was not the way to live. With ad-
vice from her uncle, who was an Air Force
senior master sergeant at the time, the then
23-year-old Brittany knew the Air Force was
the new obstacle for which she had been
searching.
