The men and women of the US Air Force represent the best Air Force in the world, and this generation is “as good as ever, but they are standing on the shoulders of giants,” Gen. Michael Moseley, Air Force Chief of Staff, said. Speaking at the 42nd Air Force Villages Chairman’s Dinner, Moseley said that he is confident in the ability of today’s airmen to accomplish any mission. “The real treasure of the Air Force is its people,” he said.
Air Force Gen. Jacqueline D. Van Ovost—a trailblazer and one of the first 10 women to reach a four-star rank across the U.S. military—retired and passed control of U.S. Transportation Command to Air Force Gen. Randall Reed on Oct. 4, finishing an eventful tenure at TRANSCOM.
