Letter to Airmen focuses on 'Excellence in All We Do'

  • Published
In the latest Letter to Airmen, Secretary of the Air Force Michael W. Wynne discusses the core value of "Excellence in All We Do" and how it relates to Air Force Smart Operations for the 21st Century.

The secretary said he was impressed with the "amazing things" Airmen are accomplishing in the Air Force while serving in a combat zone.

"I was also proud to see Airmen everywhere using Air Force Smart Operations to strive for excellence in their deployed workplaces," wrote Secretary Wynne. "Seemingly simple suggestions, such as rearranging tool rooms and weapons storage facilities, saved time, money, and even lives, while giving us a more efficient and lethal organization."

Secretary Wynne said AFSO 21 assists Airmen by empowering them to ask how they can improve things.

"Excellence must be our prevailing attitude," he wrote.
