For the first time, members of the Philippine Air Force have been attending Airman Leadership School at Hickam AFB, Hawaii. It’s part of a training process to enable the PAF to create its own formal leadership program. Four instructor/students and the command sergeant majors of the PAF are currently attending an ALS class, with five additional students planned for the future. The new instructors will then write up a curriculum and establish a Philippine airman leadership school in Fiscal 2007. “ALS is helping us develop more and starting innovations that can be adjusted to our system,” said PAF Command Sgt. Maj. Cesar Soloria.
While the Space Force is still making long-term plans to establish high-fidelity live and virtual test and training ranges in the coming years, officials say they're also working with operators to identify near-term gaps and quickly field capabilities to address them.
