Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force JoAnne S. Bass provides her keynote address during the Airlift/Tanker Association Symposium in Denver, Colo. Oct. 29, 2022. Bass spoke to mobility Airmen and mobility partners, in which she expressed her focus on building a human capital strategy so that every Airman knows their role and purpose in our Air Force. The strategy consists of the rollout of the Enlisted Force Development Action Plan, Blueprint and Purple Book. Combined, all are essential tools to assist every Airman and supervisor in how we develop and employ our Airmen. Additionally, she stressed the need to understand strategic competition, what is at stake, and the high-end fight. Finally, she thanked mobility Airmen and underscored their imperative role within the joint force mission. “Pacific Air Forces cannot do their mission without you,” said Bass. “U.S. Air Forces in Europe cannot do their mission without you. Air Combat Command, U.S. Central Command, Air Force Global Strike Command, U.S. Africa Command ... Nobody can do their mission without you.” This year’s symposium brought together 1,600 Air Force senior leaders, industry partners, media, partner nations representatives, and Airmen with mobility equities, to include Airmen from Air Force Special Operations Command and Air Force Education Command. The open environment drove discussion on issues and challenges facing America and the Air Mobility community at large, with a specific focus on the Indo-Pacific area of responsibility and the mobility joint force requirements that will yield safety and security for the nation.
