Air Combat Command boss Gen. Hawk Carlisle was inducted into the Order of the Sword—the highest honor the enlisted force can bestow on an officer—during an Oct. 27 ceremony in Hampton, Va. “I would describe Gen. Carlisle as a selfless leader and servant leader,” said ACC Command Chief CMSgt. Steve McDonald in a release. “I have seen his schedule and how much of his life is devoted to the Air Force.
