CSAF's Vector focuses on warfighting perspective

  • Published
SAN ANTONIO (AFNEWS) --  With the nation at war, the latest Chief of Staff's Vector redirects our service's focus and warfighting orientation.

"As Airmen, we have a unique warfighting perspective, shaped by a century-old quest to gain the high ground," said Gen. T. Michael Moseley, the Air Force chief of staff.  "The association between Air Force and flying is universal, inherent and undeniable. Yet, over the years, we have become so technically proficient and specialized that we have sometimes drifted from our core essence and let our functions override our mission-focus and warfighting orientation.

"We must never forget that our Air Force isn't just a conglomeration of diverse specialties, skill sets, or jobs," he said." Ours is the profession of arms. We are Airmen Warriors -- dedicated to flying, fighting, and winning." 

Included in this CSAF's Vector is the new Airman's Creed, which will replace all existing Air Force-related creeds.  It articulates the service's fundamental beliefs and captures the essence of the Air Force's warfighting ethos.
