The Air Force has created a new Web site feature that highlights the work—and sacrifices—airmen are making in the war on terror. The site, which is called “Portraits in Courage,” initially features photos and vignettes on the contributions of 15 airmen. Gen. Michael Moseley, Chief of Staff, says that airmen have “stepped up and done incredible things” throughout the service’s history and that it’s important to recognize that “today’s airmen continue that legacy and are answering the call in a big way.”
Secretary of Defense Austin Lloyd III met with his counterparts from Australia, Japan and the Philippines to discuss bolstering defense ties on May 2. The discussion included plans for joint F-35 exercises with Japan and Australia in the coming years.
