Missy Franklin Instagram – Speaking at the Air Force Academy’s National Character and Leadership Symposium! Bringing y’all along with me on this amazing (and BUSY!) work weekend I had in Colorado Springs! I had to split the weekend into two parts, so here is part one, all focused on my time at the Air Force Academy. It was such an honor speaking at this event. Any opportunity I have to work with the military means the world to me, because it’s because of them and their sacrifices that I am able to represent my country on a stage like the Olympics. Thank you so much for having me, it was my true pleasure.
