Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne tells airmen in a new letter that he plans to institute “refined initial and developmental education for all ranks” to take USAF’s educational foundation “to the next level.” The service has extended basic training to provide combat indoctrination and is providing cultural and language classes in some professional military education settings. Wynne says airmen must “be relentless” toward becoming “knowledge-enabled.”
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.
