19th Airlift Wing commander
Black Knights, there are five truths that we hold dear to our profession. These truths guide us in our day-to-day operations to ensure mission success. Whether that mission is flying a sortie or saving an Airman from an alcohol-related incident, these truths cut to our core.
Truth No. 1 addresses courage, leadership and discipline.
Truth No. 2 addresses our wingman contract.
Truth No. 3 addresses global C-130 airlift.
Truth No. 4 addresses taking the right risk.
Truth No. 5 addresses physical fitness.
Over the next few weeks, every Black Knight will receive a card that addresses each truth. They’re meant to be carried with you as a visual reminder of what we stand for. They’re also meant to initiate conversations between supervisors and subordinates.
Talk about them. Truly understand what they mean and what they embody. Use them as an additional tool to ensure those who work for -- and with you -- conform to them.
These truths ensure and strengthen every aspect of our Combat Airlift mission.
It’s an honor to serve with each of you. Thank you so much for your service and sacrifice. You and your families are simply amazing.
