  • Published
Officials announced the new Chief of Staff of the Air Force reading list Nov. 1.

"Our Air Force has an incredible heritage… a heritage built on courage, valor, brilliance and perseverance," said Gen. T. Michael Moseley.

The reading list focuses on history and heritage. Understanding history allows Air Force members to understand the world today and see the possibilities for the future, the general said.

"This first portion of the (list) captures the stories and visions of our founding fathers and Air Force pioneers," General Moseley said. "Through the next four years, the reading list will change, journeying from our past to our future horizons."

The CSAF reading list can be accessed at www.af.mil/library/csafreading complete with links and book reviews. The books will also be available through Air University, Maxwell Air Force Base, Ala., and Air Force libraries.

General Moseley said he has no doubt in the success of the Air Force in the challenges faced today.

"We've done it before, and we will do it again," he said. "Our history proves our success is not founded on our technology, but on our Airmen."
