United States Air Force

Quality of Life in the Military United States Air Force

Today your Airmen serve in unprecedented times. After 25 years of constant combat operations they face a dynamic, unpredictable future that does and will increasingly rely on airpower. They serve in the smallest and oldest Air Force in our history; the size of our force is at an all-time low, and the average age of our aircraft and buildings are at an all-time high. Yet our Airmen continue to provide the preponderance of combat force against our adversaries around the globe. There is no doubt they are the most talented, educated and experienced force our country has ever assembled. They are professionals who are proud to serve and accomplish their mission even under fiscal constraints.
