Heather Sealover

Major Heather Sealover commissioned in the Air Force in 2009 and works as the Branch Chief for
the Sentinel Weapon System Team at Barks dale AFB , Louisiana. One of her greatest achievements
was serving on all of the major disciplines of the Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM)
weapon systems including operations, maintenance and munitions maintenance. Her efforts helped
shape the future of the Sentinel program as the replacement for the aging ICBM fleet. For more than
half her life she competed in long distance races including half-marathons, marathons and 50-
milers . Following a series of injuries her doctor told her she may never be able to race again but she
beat the odds, qualifying for the Boston Marathon in a racing wheelchair. She feels pride in her ability
to adapt to new ways of participating in the sports she loves saying, “Focus on what you can do
and work hard at it.”
