EVERY WARFIGHTER
SPIRITUALLY FIT AND READY!

 
 

As our Airmen and Guardians deliver air and space power advantage to the Joint Force, the Chaplain Corps (HC) at home and abroad ensures that warfighters are spiritually fit and ready to thrive across the spectrum of military operations from competition before the fight, during the fight, after the fight, and beyond their time in uniform.

AF/HC Mission

To inspire the spirit of the warfighter through religious accommodation, spiritual fitness, and leadership advisement.

AF/HC Vision

Every Warfighter…Spiritually Fit and Ready!

AF/HC Motto

Spiritual Readiness


Religious Support Teams (RSTs) support and advise commanders on all matters related to religion, spiritual fitness, suicide prevention, ethics, morale, and overall, well-being. They also serve as the principal advisors for the Spiritual Domain within the Department of War’s Total Force Fitness Framework.

 

HOPE Spiritual Fitness Initiative


The HOPE Spiritual Fitness Initiative strengthens Airmen and Guardians by helping them connect with God, the transcendent, and that which gives their lives meaning and purpose. These connections, forged through service, fortify the inner spiritual strength warfighters need to thrive and stay mission-ready in both life and combat.
