Air Force sisters
Sisters Airmen 1st Class Zenita Encarnacion, 19, left, and Nisha Threat, 21, spend a moment together before Airman Encarnacion’s recent diagnostic imaging Phase II course graduation. They enlisted together Sept. 23, 2008, and went through basic training at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas, in the same flight. After completing basic training, Airman Encarnacion attended Phase I training at Sheppard AFB, Texas. Airman Threat completed technical training as a nutrition care specialist at Lackland and Sheppard, arriving at Keesler in March 2009. Her sister followed in June. Airman Encarnacion joins her husband, Airman 1st Class Jacob Lindsey, also a diagnostic imaging technologist, at Lackland. He graduated from the Keesler Phase II program in December. Airman Threat is married to Airman 1st Class Lawrence Threat, a security forces member assigned to Ramstein AB, Germany. The sisters are from St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands.
