SAN ANTONIO, Texas (AFNEWS) --   The chief master sergeant of the Air Force released his latest perspective and it focuses on taking care of wounded Airmen.

Chief Master Sgt. Rodney J. McKinley, the Air Force's top enlisted Airman, knows the importance of taking care of Airmen, especially those who have been wounded during the war on terrorism.

"It's important that every one of our Airmen know the Air Force is committed to providing the same level of resources, planning and implementation toward caring for our combat-related ill and injured as it does in preparing Airmen for deployment and combat," Chief McKinley said.

The chief highlights the Survivor Assistance Program and Palace HART (Helping Airmen Recover Together) in his latest letter.

"Through the Survivor Assistance Program and Palace HART, our wounded Airmen are getting, and will continue to get, the care they deserve," Chief McKinley said.
