According to the Air Force’s top enlisted airman, CMSAF Rodney McKinley, “One thing we haven’t done well is to tell our story.” So, USAF will build on its initial “Air Force Week” event in St. Louis and hopes to expand it to perhaps 10 cities in 2007. McKinley told Air Force Magazine Monday that cities where there is no military presence are of particular concern, and USAF officials want to focus information efforts there.
The Air Force is on track to reach its annual goal of graduating 1,500 new pilots that had proved elusive to this point, one year after the service launched a sweeping overhaul of its undergraduate pilot training program, Air Education and Training Command said Sept. 14.
