1/10/2013 - WASHINGTON (AFNS) -- The Air Force released a new Vision document today outlining the force's vision and way forward.
"Focused on 'Airmen, Mission, and Innovation,' I believe this short
document captures what today's Air Force is all about and where I think
we ought to focus on for tomorrow," said Air Force Chief of Staff Gen.
Mark A. Welsh III in an email to all Airmen.
"We are the greatest air force in the world because of our
Airmen--Active, Reserve, Guard, and Civilian--to remain the greatest, we
must make our team even stronger," the Vision states.
The Vision discusses the Air Force's enduring contributions of air and
space superiority; intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance; rapid
global mobility; global strike; and command and control and the need to
strengthen them.
"We already combine our air, space, and cyber forces to maximize these
enduring contributions, but the way we execute these five calling cards
must continually evolve as we strive to increase our asymmetric
advantage," the Vision says. "Our Airmen's ability to rethink the battle
while incorporating new technologies will improve the varied ways our
Air Force accomplishes its missions.
"Every Airman should constantly look for smarter ways to do business.
The person closest to the problem is often the one with the best
solution. Leaders should empower Airmen to think creatively, find new
solutions, and make decisions," according to the Vision.
The Vision concludes with a call to action for all Airmen to tell their
story, being proud of who they are, what they do, and how well they
accomplish the mission.
