Comprehensive Airman Fitness

CAF is a holistic approach to develop over-arching Airman fitness and resilience. "Airman" collectively refers to military, civilian, and family members. CAF includes fitness in mental, physical, social, and spiritual domains and is not a stand-alone program or specified training class; instead, CAF is a cultural shift in how we view and maintain fitness in a more comprehensive manner and enables Airmen to hold each other accountable against Air Force Core Values. CAF provides an integrated framework that encompasses many cross-functional education and training efforts, activities, programs, and other equities that play a contributory role in sustaining a fit, resilient, and ready force. Leaders and individuals throughout the force must understand, promote, and support CAF.

    Airmen cultivate leadership qualities through Ranger Assessment Course

    A small formation of Airmen gather around a flagpole, next to it is a large rock with the words, “Not for the weak or fainthearted” painted in bright yellow, box letters. An authoritative voice can be heard, “Varela, first stanza. Fundis, second stanza. Dickerson, third stanza. Gardner, fourth stanza. Pace, fifth stanza. Good, sixth stanza.” As six Airmen are chosen, they make their way to the front of the formation and stand face-to-face with their peers – three Airmen on either side of a pedestal.

    It is possible: Soar with the wind and stars

    As we close out Women's History month, I could not help but once again share the incredible story of Lt. Col. Jacqueline Cochran, reserve officer. This year’s theme for Women’s History month is “Visionary Women: Champions of Peace and Nonviolence.” I realize we are in the military, and many would not exactly classify us as nonviolent! I would agree, for after all we are warfighters; however, I submit we are also brokers of peace.

After her four years of experience, she now encourages other women in her profession to push through and overcome adversity in the maintenance world.
