The beating heart of the Air Force: Squadrons Following his recent induction as the 21st Chief of Staff of the Air Force, Gen. David L. Goldfein sent out the following letter as the first in a series of short papers that outline his thinking in key focus areas. On 1 July, Secretary James swore me in as your 21st Chief of Staff. This is the privilege of a lifetime. Standing on the shoulders of the 20 giants who paved the way ahead of me, I take on this sacred duty of leading our 660,000 active, guard, reserve, and civilian Airmen absolutely committed to servant leadership. I am honored to be your Chief. Over the next several weeks leading up to the Air Force Association convention in September, I will publish a series of short papers laying out my thinking on key focus areas. This is the first in the series. Under the leadership of Secretary James, General Welsh, and Chief Cody, we completed a number of strategic planning documents that provide a useful framework and planning process to shape our future force. I fully support the strategy articulated in the Strategic Master Plan (SMP) and Air Force Future Operating Concept (AFFOC) and we will continue to align our strategy with this vision. I also look forward to championing the priorities that Secretary James has established for us and has so consistently and tirelessly advocated throughout her tenure: Taking Care of People, Balancing Today’s Readiness with Tomorrow’s Modernization, and Making Every Dollar Count. If we are to achieve the aspirations laid out in the SMP and AFFOC, I believe we must have a solid foundation organizationally. Our own AFl’s state that “squadrons are the basic, building block organizations in the Air Force, providing a specific operational or support capability.” I have always believed this to be true and so I am
convinced it’s where we need to start. This applies equally to our support organizations that may not align under a squadron construct, but actively support squadrons in the execution of their mission. The squadron is the beating heart of the United States Air Force; our most essential team. We succeed or fail in our missions at the squadron-level because that is where we develop, train, and build Airmen. Our service culture and traditions manifest themselves in the squadron because our Airmen most readily identify with this core fighting unit. Squadrons are the engines of innovation and esprit de corps. Squadrons possess the greatest potential for operational agility. Squadron commanders, civilian leaders, superintendents, and first sergeants have the most profound and lasting impact on Airmen and families. They set and enforce standards, create the environment where the right things are fostered (warfighting excellence, esprit de corps, thriving Airmen and families) ... and are the first line of defense against behaviors we find unacceptable (a toxic work environment, sexual assault, suicide, domestic violence). It is time to revitalize the squadron as the warfighting core of our Air Force. Our vision demands that “squadrons be highly capable, expeditionary teams who can successfully defend our Nation’s interests in both today’s and tomorrow’s complex operating environments.” We will succeed only when our squadrons are “the cohesive, ready, and agile fighting forces that the Air Force, Combatant Commanders, and the Nation requires”.
The past fifteen years have wrought an almost singular focus on countering violent extremism in the Middle East. That necessity has resulted in considerable trades across the portfolios of Global Vigilance, Reach, and Power. Even under difficult budget conditions, we delivered when the Nation ca lled on us to increase investment in ISR, Space, Cyber, and to revitalize the Nuclear Enterprise. In the ISR portfolio alone, we grew an RPA industry from scratch that has become the oxygen the joint force breathes. However, our success has come at a price. We were compelled to find operational efficiencies to balance our budgets, with manpower and conventional airpower accounts suffering most. Squadrons have been asked to bear the brunt of an incredible deployment tempo and manpower shortages which have had a direct impact on readiness in our warfighting missions. In my experience, readiness and morale are inextricably linked. Walk the line at Bagram AB or Al Udeid AB where units are fully manned and readiness is high and you’ll find morale is equally high. Visit one of our CONUS main operating bases and you’ll often find manning hovering between 60-70% with many key supervisors and leaders deployed or dual-hatted, remaining Airmen working overtime, and units managing parts » See 3

“

CONTINUED FROM 2 and equipment shortages. On top of this, our squadron commanders, civilian leaders, superintendents, first sergeants, and Airmen feel first-hand the challenges associated with increased mandatory recurring training, a growing list of additional duties, and the challenge of a “do-it-your-self’ world in place of Airmen who previously provided services for them. The resultant effect of these challenges is we have degraded the core fighting unit of our Air Force. The place where Airmen live, breathe, and grow, where we generate combat capability, and where our culture resides ... the squadron. Over the next several weeks leading up to our 69th birthday celebration and the AFA convention in September, I look forward to a robust discussion across the Air Force to sharpen this dialogue and fill in the “how” behind the “why”. Bottom line — if we are going to sustain warfighting excellence and build the Air Force outlined in the SMP and AFFOC, it must begin in our squadrons. Therefore, revitalizing squadrons as the core fighting unit in our Air Force will be the primary focus in my first year as your Chief. I look forward to working closely with our Secretary, MAJCOM Commanders, and Air Force leadership team across our total force to get after this in the months ahead.

Serving those who serve: FSS offers resiliency through activity By Airman 1st Class Derek Seifert 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
For the 633rd Force Support Squadron at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia, ensuring the Service members, their families, the civilian employees and retirees have commodities available is a daily goal. The 633rd FSS works to enhance readiness by providing worldwide combat support and community services such as bowling, golf, fitness centers, teen centers, stables and libraries for members of the JBLE community. “Ultimately it’s about mission readiness and creating a resilient member so they can fight and win,� said Donna Fontes, 633rd FSS chief of operating location for Fort Eustis. “[A Service member’s] mission is to defend the nation. Our services are about providing opportunities for building social and personal bonds because we want the military member to go fight, defend and win, and not have to worry about anything back home, so we’re making them more confident and
focused on their mission.� With the aim to develop a resilient community, FSS looks to provide services aimed at enhancing the lives of Service members and their families, said Fontes. “For [Service members] to stay in, commit to their jobs and travel around with their families we need to make sure their quality of life equals what’s available outside of the military,� said Fontes. “We’re committed to giving them the quality of life they deserve as someone who is willing to step up, defend and make the ultimate sacrifice for the nation.� Along with mirroring services outside of the gate, many of the support activities here are financially selfsustaining. “Some of our programs like the clubs, bowling and golf facilities are self-sufficient programs that generate revenue allowing us to keep them open,� explained Fontes. “Fitness centers provide physical training and fitness but families can also gather and military members can create unit cohesion through intramurals or pick-up games.�

August 26 celebrates Women’s Equality Day within the U.S. The day commemorates the passage of the 19th Amendment but also recognizes the progression of women’s equality through the barriers that women have fought to overcome.

Langley Wingwomen highlight Women’s Equality Day By Airman 1st Class Kaylee Dubois 633 AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
Women in America earned the right to vote 96 years ago and since then have continued fighting to improve their rights. August 26 is recognized as Women’s Equality Day, an observance of the progression of women’s equality from the passing of the 19th amendment during the women’s suffrage movement to today’s accomplishments, such as the first female presidential candidate. “Women are still in a battle to prove our worth,” said Peggy “PJ” Jones, Women’s Equality Day Observance participant. “Our freedom as women, came with a price, and recognizing women’s equality keeps us from forgetting where we came from.” Jones expressed the importance of re-
membering the barriers that suffragists overcame to provide us with the freedoms women have today. U.S. Air Force Master Sgt. Kimberly R. Young, Women’s Equality Day Observance chairman, said society as a whole should be involved in the progression of women’s rights, rather than to limit the movement to the gender it depicts. “It is important that both men and women celebrate women’s equality,” said Young. “We are a team. It was not just a woman who had to prove herself, but a whole gender had to prove themselves greatly to be seen as a strong equal member of society.” Seeing equality in full swing is what the community should strive for, said U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Kristie Kersch, Women’s Equality Day Observance participant.
“This world would be terribly boring if everyone was the same; we as a human race are not meant to be that way,” said Kersch. “Our differences should most certainly be celebrated, but nothing should be taken away or withheld because of those differences. Women are no exception.” Kersch continued highlighting the growth of women in the U.S. Armed Forces throughout the years and the importance of their impact. “Women in the military deserve recognition for what they do because their role has come a long way, and expanded immensely from the days of the Army Nurse Corp and the Women Airforce Service Pilots,” said Kersch. “Not only have they brought about change in a drastic way, but they give the military something it never had before and women have become just as vital as
male counterparts. That is something to be proud of.” Although Joint Base Langley-Eustis is not hosting an observance event this year, Young invites members to always show continual respect for each other in hopes to propel the community into greater days ahead. “Team JBLE is the largest base we have in ACC, and to that end, we are loaded with wonderful, hardworking women,” said Young. “Why not celebrate this great accomplishment our foremothers have conquered for us as a whole? When we as a team, both men and women learn to value each other and respect each other’s abilities, we will put down many other injustices we face in today’s time.” For more information about women’s equality day, contact the Equal Opportunity Office at 764-5877.

AF TO REDUCE ADDITIONAL DUTIES
go red.
By Mike Martin
anyway you want...
SECRETARY OF THE AIR FORCE PUBLIC AFFAIRS
Airmen need more time to focus on their core missions. Air Force senior leaders said that’s the message they received from Airmen and it’s the reason they made the decision to reduce additional duties. In a memorandum to Airmen released Aug. 19, Secretary of the Air Force Deborah Lee James and Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Dave Goldfein announced the service has established a task force titled “Airmen’s Time,” charged with streamlining, and in some cases eliminating, additional duties. “We have heard your concern and frustration,” James and Goldfein said in the memo. “In meeting with Airmen at installations around the globe, we have heard consistently that additional duties assigned at the unit level affect our ability to focus on core missions, which in turn impacts our readiness.” After conducting a review of the duties under the direct control of the Air Force, the task force was able to eliminate, reassign or reduce 29 of 61 specific duties identified under Air Force Instruction 38-206, “Additional Duty Management.” Reassigned duties will be carried out by commander support staff, which are being re-established over time as a central part of Air Force squadrons, or through other means that do not require Airmen to be pulled away from their core missions. Over the last several years, the Air Force began adding support manpower to squadrons to help relieve some administrative burdens, but it will take time before most units are able to begin absorbing some of the reassigned additional duties. For additional duties being transferred to the CSS work center, further action is required to document the workload requirement in manning standards, fund sufficient manpower resources, and accomplish required training to execute these duties.
“Until the new CSS decisions are implemented and CSS manning is healthy, commanders are empowered at all levels to consolidate CSS-assigned duties as appropriate, and discontinue noncritical duties beyond their ability to resource,” they said. Those duties being reduced will no longer universally apply to all units, giving commanders much more flexibility in determining what duties are necessary for their type of unit, thereby reducing the need to train Airmen on functions that aren’t needed in a particular unit. Simultaneous to the revision of the instructions, the inspector general will begin to make updates to inspection checklists to reflect modifications to the AFI. Additionally, beginning this fall, the Air Force will establish a new screening process to review new policies and identify areas creating additional duties for Airmen with the goal of preventing unchecked growth of these functions in the future. James understands there is more work to be done. “This, I want to emphasize, will be a first step,” James said. “And it’s going to be followed up by a review of computer-based training and other ancillary requirements that take up a lot of our Airmen’s time.” According to the memo, the service will focus on duties originating in law and Defense Department policy, and emphasize areas where the Air Force can eliminate, consolidate or streamline training requirements that have increased in recent years. “Our squadron commanders, civilian leaders, superintendents, first sergeants, and Airmen feel firsthand the challenges associated with increased mandatory recurring training, a growing list of additional duties, and the challenge of a “do-it-yourself world,” Goldfein said. “It is time to revitalize the squadron as the warfighting core of our Air Force.” The full list of additional duties impacted is available on the ‘Reducing the Burden on our Airmen’ fact sheet.

Army Gen. Joseph L. Votel, U.S. Central Command’s commanding general, presided over the ceremony in which command was transferred to Townsend from Army Lt. Gen. Sean MacFarland, the commander of III Armored Corps based at Fort Hood, Texas. The ceremony was attended by hundreds of U.S. and coalition soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines.
Pressuring ISIL Votel expressed confidence in the team from Fort Bragg to continue pressuring the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. “We are very fortunate to be welcoming another great team in Lt. Gen. Steve Townsend and Command Sgt. Maj. Benjamin Jones,” Votel said. “The XVIII Airborne Corps has very big shoes to fill, but I know they are up to the task and raring to go!” Over the last several months, officials said, soldiers from the XVIII Airborne Corps have conducted intense training to prepare for the mission. In his remarks, Townsend highlighted the progress already accomplished in the region. “Over the past year, CJTF-OIR, led by my good friend Lt. Gen. Sean MacFarland and his III Armored Corps, and our coalition and regional partners, have done incredible work to degrade and dismantle ISIL’s oppressive and brutal regime,” Townsend said. “Their combined efforts on the ground and in the air have accelerated” the counter-ISIL campaign, Townsend said, pushing ISIL back across the battlefield and achieving remarkable momentum toward ISIL’s ultimate defeat.

LANGLEY’S HISTORY, DESIGNED AND BUILT TO LAST By Beverly Joyner 633RD AIR BASE WING PUBLIC AFFAIRS
U.S. Air Force photo by Sgt. Brigitte N. Brantley
Defense Secretary Ash Carter speaks with Army Lt. Gen. Stephen J. Townsend, left, XVIII Airborne Corps commanding general, during a visit to Fort Bragg, N.C., July 27, 2016.
Counter-ISIL accomplishments Key accomplishments achieved during the III Armored Corps tour include: — The training of more than 13,500 members of the Iraqi security forces, including more than 4,000 Iraqi soldiers, 1,500 counterterrorism service soldiers, 6,000 Peshmerga, andalmost 1,000 federal police and 300 border guards. — An increased emphasis on police training and the recruitment of tribal forces, adding 5,000 trained local police and over 20,000 tribal fighters enrolled. — About 50,000 counter-ISIL sorties conducted in the past year, during which more than 30,000 munitions were dropped on the enemy, approximately two-thirds of them in Iraq and about one-third in Syria. — The liberation of more than 25,000 total square kilometers from ISIL, nearly nearly half of the territory the enemy once controlled in Iraq and 20 percent of the territory the enemy once controlled in Syria. — More than 200 strikes conducted against oil and natural gas activities of the enemy, which reduced the enemy’s oil revenue stream by approximately 50 percent. — Vigorous attacks on the enemy leadership and command-and-control and weapons manufacturing capability, including attacks on more than 25 bulk cash storage sites, resulting in at least half-a-billion dollars destroyed. Townsend shared his vision for the CJTFOIR mission ahead. “Let me say for all to hear — friend and foe alike — we will continue the attack against ISIL, and we will defeat them in Iraq and Syria on our watch,” Townsend said. The XVIII Airborne Corps most recently returned from a December 2014 deployment to Afghanistan, where it led the NATO operational headquarters in Kabul, the International Security Assistance Force Joint Command.
Diamonds, rectangles, squares and other intricate patterns adorn the exterior of numerous brick buildings on Langley Air Force Base, Virginia, which were designed and built when the installation was still called Langley Field. Industrial architect Albert Kahn was selected to design the installation in 1917, after funding approval and land acquisition for aeronautical research facilities, an aviation field and other infrastructure at Langley. According to the Air Combat Command historian office’s publication, “Langley, 1916-1996,” Kahn, one of the foremost architects in the country, visualized a unique architecture for Langley’s buildings and created striking exterior designs featuring intricate patterns of brickwork and tile. Renowned in the Detroit area for designing automotive plants, houses and other facilities, Kahn utilized classical and neo-classical architectural styles at Langley while collaborating with his brother Julius Kahn, who developed innovative building materials. “Kahn took on the design work at Langley for half of his usual commission,” said David Jennings, 633rd Civil Engineer Squadron environmental engineer. “He also designed the original roadway that is still relatively intact.” Over the years weather has affected the exteriors of Langley’s original buildings, but many have been totally renovated inside. Instead of demolishing buildings due to age, some can be preserved and reused for other purposes, said Jennings. “We work with the Virginia Department of Historic Resources in the reuse of our buildings,” said Jennings. “People are interested in maintaining the classic designs of Langley’s older structures because of the character of the buildings.” For an up-close look at several of the buildings designed by Kahn and other historically significant structures on Langley, the ACC historian’s office offers a self-guided historic walking tour brochure of original Langley. Beginning at the Langley Club parking lot, people can follow the brochure’s directions to view original aircraft hangars, residential living quarters and office buildings featuring Kahn’s decorative brickwork and concrete iconography designs. Also on the tour route, one of the U.S. Air Force’s most historically significant buildings, the Air Combat Command headquarters, was designed by Kahn and built in 1919. It has been the home of organizations that have played key roles in every major development of U.S. airpower, according to the brochure. Other highlights of the tour include concrete iconography of the United States shield, military aviator emblems and brick work designs showcasing a star within a circle, a symbol of the early U.S. Army Air Service. As people travel through the original Langley area, they should look around at the buildings instead of just walking by, said Jennings. “There is a lot of character there and you can see the history.” For more information on the history of Langley Air Force Base, visit www.jble.af.mil/about-us.
