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.

April 7, 2023 | 2:02
The 17th Special Operations Squadron, from Cannon Air Force Base, is providing two AC-130J Ghostrider Gunships in support of Balikatan 23. The AC-130J is a highly modified C-130J aircraft with a Precision Strike Package, which includes precision-guided munitions delivery capability as well as 30mm and 105mm weapons. The gunship's long loiter time and deep magazine make it a viable fires platform in the region and a strong asset in maintaining a free and open Indo-Pacific. Balikatan is an annual exercise between the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the U.S. Military designed to strengthen bilateral interoperability, capabilities, trust, and cooperation built over decades of shared experiences.
