TOP STORY >>Team Little Rock: In the business of winning

By Col. Wayne Schatz
314 Airlift Wing commander

Editor’s Note: This is part three of a three-part series about the 314th Airlift Wing Goals, Vision and Mission.

The 314th Airlift Wing mission is to “Train and deploy the world’s premiere C-130 and C-21 combat airlifters.”

Training aircrews is what we do. Supporting the mission to provide ready, highly trained C-130 Airmen is vital to America’s defense. You all play a key part in getting the job done. I’ll depend upon your leadership and expertise to make us successful.
We owe combatant commanders highly skilled Airmen; from the flightline to the front gate, our men and women have a vital role in ensuring America is always number one in combat.

I believe our outstanding people are what make our Air Force the best in the world. As we enter the summer months keep your Airmen and families in the forefront of your thoughts; ensure you are looking out for your Wingman. We cannot afford to lose one Airman to reckless boating incidents, DUIs, or safety mishaps.

The mission cannot be accomplished without you!
