CSAF Because of You - Aviators
Air Force Television Pentagon (SAF/PAI)
Video by Anthony Young
April 25, 2019 | 1:55
“Today’s Air Force is the best in the world and the reason is obvious -- our people. Pure and simple. It’s no secret, a life of service can be hard and demanding – yet, our Airmen demonstrate an unrivaled dedication and inspiring willingness to serve. That’s why it’s important to recognize – publicly and often – the incredible work that is done every day, everywhere across the Air Force.

Capturing that work, that attitude and the people behind it, is the focus of a new series of short films called “Because of You.” The first is about aviators, another looks at the lives and work of our maintainers, and there will be others to follow.

Taken together, the films highlight the skill and professionalism our Airmen bring to the job each day. These are the Air Force’s defining characteristics, our core values, our ethos – and what drives the Air Force to impressive heights.” - Gen. David L. Goldfein, CSAF 21
