Air Force 1st Lt. Fanita Schmidt, 4th Space Operations Squadron orbital analysis engineer, donates blood at the 3rd Annual Blood Drive hosted by the 21st Medical Dental Squadron. Schmidt explained her decision to donate was based on personal experiences. "It saved my life," she said. "I'm trying to give back the way someone did for me. I believe it's a life-saving process and the organization exists to give someone else the opportunity to live a longer life, if not save a life." (U.S. Air Force photo by Christopher DeWitt)
