Mentoring is a relationship in which knowledge and skills are shared between members in a way in which everyone benefits. Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

U.S. Marines, assigned to Task Force Sapper, repair a section of barbed wire along the southern border barrier near Otay Mesa, Calif., May 2, 2025. Task Force Sapper is composed of 500 Marines and sailors from I Marine Expeditionary Force who have been tasked with engineering support to U.S. Northern Command with the emplacement of physical barriers on the Southern Border barrier to add additional security that will curtail illegal border crossings. Under the direction of the U.S. NORTHCOM, Joint Task Force–Southern Border aligns efforts to seal the southern border and repel illegal activity and is responsible for full-scale, agile, and all-domain operations, which will allow for more effective and efficient DoD operations.
