KOAA News5: One year ago, KOAA filed a 64 word public records request with the Air Force Academy (USAFA), seeking email records between two individuals.

The time frame was limited, and the request seemed simple enough. It was unknown what, if anything, the records would yield for reporting purposes. The idea to file a request was born out of curiosity when covering a separate report.

The expectation was to have them in the newsroom by October or November last year at the earliest, but the end of 2024 at the latest.
