RT @AEIfdp: .@GenDaveGoldfein: I am most proud of the fact that we have done everything we can as a force to avoid civilian casualties

Our focus on the squadron will help incentivize #Airmen to stay. Being an #Airman is a calling--that is what will keep people in. @AEIfdp

#USAF pilot shortage is a national issue. Need national approach in partnership w/ Congress to help increase our supply to meet demand. #AEI

RPA pilots are part of who we are & what we do. We fight as a family of systems that are all connected together. They're all required. #AEI

We go to war w/ our values. I'm proud that #USAF has been so disciplined & has done everything in our power to reduce civ casualties @AEIfdp

I'm looking forward to dialogue about future of deterrence in 21st century. It's broader than nuclear--includes space, cyber, etc. @AEIfdp

It's time to evolve the way we prosecute this campaign against violent extremism; must balance sustainment w/ readiness for future conflict.

RT @AEIfdp: .@GenDaveGoldfein: The #Airforce has been the stewards of space since 1954

Growth of commercial space offers incredible opportunities for #USAF to partner. There is lot of good work to be done in space. @AEIfdp

When we think of the future of space, a healthy way to look at it is as another domain in which we operate; must normalize space. @AEIfdp

Building readiness starts with people. We are focused on talent management & growing joint leaders in the #AirForce @AEIfdp

Readiness is a function of what we have forward & what we have at home. We must think of readiness from enterprise perspective. @AEIfdp

When you look at the joint force & what #AirForce does around the globe, we've become heavily reliant on the space & cyber domains. @AEIfdp
