The top enlisted man in the Air Force took a turn loading one of the guns on an Air Force Special Operations Command AC-130H gunship during an orientation flight out of Hurlburt Field, Fla., last week. CMSAF Rodney McKinley called the three days he spent with special operators an “amazing” learning experience. During an enlisted call, McKinley found the airmen highly interested in this summer’s rollout of a new enlisted performance report system that he said would require less time and be “easier to accomplish.”
Unit commanders are being told to separate service members who can’t shave their cheeks and chin for medical reasons for more than a year, according to new guidance from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
