From then until she retired from the University of Kentucky in 2006, Franketta served her country with distinction in a number of challenging roles. Whether serving as an Army nurse in Vietnam, a members of the Kentucy Army National Guard or the University of Kentucky’s Air Medical Service, Franketta has placed her personal safety to benefit others.
