Gen. Mike Minihan, Air Mobility Command commander, delivers his keynote address to Mobility Airmen attending the 2022 Airlift/Tanker Association Conference in Denver, Colorado, Oct. 27, 2022. Minihan provided a “state of the Mobility Air Forces” and the path ahead of Mobility Guardian 2023 and a potential near-peer and peer fight. Additionally, he illustrated the need to leverage a Warrior Heart culture to address the realities of lethality Mobility Air Forces are being asked to bring to the joint fight. This year’s A/TA Symposium brought together Air Force senior leaders, industry partners, media representatives, and Mobility Airmen and partners in an open environment to engage 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.
