Latest Roll Call focuses critical eye on responsible conduct

  • Published
This week's Roll Call directs Airmen to take responsibility for their actions, both on-and off-duty. Airmen are ambassadors for both their service and America -- no matter where they are stationed, TDY or deployed. Simply put, the actions of Airmen have far-reaching ramifications.

When Airmen make irresponsible choices in conduct, the Air Force's image, national security and national diplomacy could suffer.

Air Force Senior Leaders write in this week's Roll Call, "We have different rules and standards because being a warfighter is not like any other job. For the duration of your Air Force career, our collective standards bind us. As Airmen, we are never truly 'off-duty' and our actions out of uniform are just as important as in uniform. There are rules regarding off-duty behavior and off-duty employment."

Air Force personnel have a responsibility to present themselves in a professional manner every day and are held to a higher standard. Constant responsibility is the key.
All Airmen are charged to positively represent the Air Force, while protecting the Air Force's image through superb personal and professional conduct fueled by the core values, most notably "integrity first."
