Accelerate Change: Empowered Airmen

We live in a world that is driven by rapidly changing technology and an environment that includes aggressive and capable global competitors. Airmen are key to cutting unnecessary bureaucracy, recognizing and understanding our competition, and thinking of creative ways we can reshape the design of our Air Force. The Air Force must accelerate, must change, and must prepare for the future!

This page is dedicated towards highlighting the accomplishments of our talented Airmen at all levels and to show the impact they can make when they are informed and empowered to problem solve and make smart recommendations and decisions.

Throughout the course of the exercise, these Soldiers honed their skills operating their UH-60 Blackhawk helicopters, firing M240B machine guns, and conducting hot-refuels at a Fuel Ammunition Resupply Point (FARP). Gamboa discusses the importance of training new Soldiers before the deployment, and supporting the families during the deployment. (U.S. Army National Guard video/Sgt. Ian M. Kummer/Released)
