Air Education and Training Command has updated its mission and vision statements in an effort to bring airmen back to the basics. “Recruit, train, and educate airmen to deliver airpower for America” is their new mission statement. The new vision statement is, “Forging innovative airmen to power the world’s greatest Air Force,” states a Jan. 21 release. AETC boss Gen. Robin Rand said the command is committed to “producing the highest quality airmen” who “adhere to our core values, maintain our standards, value our heritage, and perform at exceptional levels.”
The Pentagon needs a Digital Command and a Digital Warfare Corps, along with other changes, to take advantage of critical new technologies, according to a think tank founded by former Google CEO and Chairman Eric Schmidt.
