The Air Force will make a matching contribution depending upon the percent you contribute, as follows: You can invest your money in any of the 25 investment options, each with a different degree of risk and reward potential. Your investment options will help you design your own personal investment strategy. You will receive quarterly statements so you can keep track of your investments.

You will be provided more information on the Plan upon becoming eligible to participate.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART ABOUT WORKING AT THE MISAWA INN?
My favorite part about working at the Misawa Inn is being a part of a professional and dedicated team, and having the opportunity to meet so many people from all the different bases when they come to check in, whether it be a TDY/TAD or a PCS-in to Misawa.
WHAT DO YOU WISH THE MISAWA COMMUNITY KNEW ABOUT YOUR SERVICES?
We pride ourselves in having the opportunity to welcome new guests and familiar faces here at the Misawa Inn. We support our guests by providing a clean and comfortable room to guarantee a good night’s rest and pleasant stay. We take responsibility in being not only the guests' first impression of the base, but also their last impression of the Misawa community.
WHAT IS YOUR BEST MEMORY AT THE MISAWA INN?
There are one too many good memories over the last eight years. But if I had to narrow it down, I would have to say our small get-togethers. My co-workers are like my second family. Each individual brings their own unique personality to the table, and I love working with them every day.
