The head of the Air Force Reserve, Lt. Gen. John Bradley now can claim a feat rarely accomplished by career fighter pilots, he has accumulated 7,000 flying hours. An Air Force Reserve Command release says Bradley’s feat is nearly twice the hours that an average career fighter pilot accumulates. And, Bradley intends to keep flying F-16s until his retirement in summer 2008.
The Air Force wants to promote working out, healthy eating habits, and a holistic approach to well-being for both Airmen and Guardians as part of a new “Culture of Fitness” initiative announced Sept. 18.
