Caroline Blaze Jensen

Hello! I'm Caroline but everyone calls me by my callsign, Blaze. I grew up in Wisconsin with a dream to fly fighter jets some day! I made the goal for myself after seeing Top Gun in 1986, which was SEVEN years before women were legally allowed to fly combat missions or be qualified in a fighter jet. I have faced a lot of obstacles in my life so far, but I have learned from all of them and was able to achieve all my dreams serving as an F-16 fighter pilot, combat veteran and #3 right wing THUNDERBIRD pilot! I want to inspire others to keep going when times are tough. When you are experience the pressure, intense heat, darkness, and uncertainty- remember it is these times we are becoming our best selves! Don't lose hope and keep sight of your goals. Stay focused and be BRILLIANT UNDER PRESSURE (TM).
