The Air Force’s two top leaders have released a new Letter to Airmen that urges airmen to consider how their “personal well-being affects [their] job performance” and, by extension, the unit mission. The leaders cite hurricane season as an example for airmen who live in hurricane-prone areas to consider “how prepared you are to protect your family financially.” Read the entire letter here.
The Air Force is requesting about $141 million for initial enlistment bonuses in its fiscal 2026 budget, while Space Force wants $13 million.
