In a new undated letter to airmen, Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne and Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Michael Moseley encourage them to respect the diversity of the men and women in the service and to be intolerant of harassment. Moseley and Wynne tell the airmen that “under enemy fire the race, religion, sex, or geographic origin of the airman fighting next to us is irrelevant,” reminding them that “we’re in this fight together.”
