title: Curiously Strong: A Female Fighter Pilot's Story of Developing Strength
author: Priscilla Giddings
description: Priscilla Giddings was raised on a small, family ranch in White Bird, Idaho and graduated from Salmon River High School in Riggins where she was the valedictorian and student body president. A four-sport athlete in high school, she was recruited for the track and field program at the Air Force Academy where she graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. After college she attended pilot training and went on to be selected to fly a fighter aircraft, the A-10 Warthog. Upon completing fighter training at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, she was the only one in her class to be awarded Top Gun, a weapons employment precision award. She followed her A-10 assignment with a career-broadening assignment flying as the mission commander on intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) missions in the MC-12. Priscilla deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom three times. She has flown gliders, C-182s, DA-20s, T-6s, T-38s, A-10s, and MC-12s and has logged a thousand combat hours and was awarded nine air medals. While serving overseas, she was able to continue her education and complete a Master of Science in Physiology from the California University of Pennsylvania. She separated from active duty in July 2014 and joined the Idaho Air National Guard as an Air Liaison Officer for the 124th Air Support Operations Squadron. She currently serves in the Air Force Reserves as the Director of Idaho Admissions Liaisons for the Air Force Academy and ROTC. After separating from active duty, Priscilla set about defending freedom through local government. She was elected in 2016 to the Idaho House of Representatives for District 7A. She represents 45,000 Idahoans covering 18,000 square miles of land. She lives on a small ranch in central Idaho with her family. She continues to travel across the country as a motivational speaker highlighting the importance of Strong Women.
