  • Published
SAN ANTONIO (AFPN) --  This week's Airman's Roll Call highlights the first-ever Senior Enlisted Leader Summit which was held at Maxwell Air Force Base, Ala., Gunter Annex. More than 360 senior enlisted leaders met July 22 to 27 to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing Airmen today.

Attendees discussed training for and fighting the war on terrorism, as well as topics such as quality of life, education and strategic communication.

"Bringing command chief master sergeants, career field managers, professional military education commandants and other senior enlisted key-position chief master sergeants together improves communication between these groups and allows us to focus more closely on the Top 3 Air Force priorities and many areas affecting Airmen and their families," said Chief Master Sgt. of the Air Force Rodney J. McKinley.

The enlisted leaders attended numerous briefings and panel discussions, including a panel comprising major command commanders and a panel with seven former chief master sergeants of the Air Force.

In addition, the more than 600 attendees commemorated the Air Force 60th Anniversary with uniforms past and present, performances and speeches, as well as a celebration of the 40th Anniversary of the Office of the Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force, by focusing on the career highlights of each of the former chief master sergeants of the Air Force at a heritage dinner.

Airman's Roll Call is designed for supervisors at all levels to help keep Airmen informed on current issues, clear up confusion, dispel rumors, and provide additional face-to-face communication.
