Staff Sgt. Jennifer Gordon, 20th Security Forces Squadron plans, programs and policy technician, shows her surgical scar to her daughter, Aaliyah, at Shaw Air Force Base, S.C., Oct. 19, 2017. Aaliyah inspired Gordon to persevere through a year of chemotherapy treatments, reminding her each time that the pain would “only last a little bit.” (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Ashley Maldonado)
