Strengthening the team

by Lt. Col. Troy C. Austin
86th Security Forces Squadron commander

The Air Force has provided mission, vision and priorities. Transforming vision into executable policy requires charismatic, energetic, inspirational yet humble leaders focused on Airmen and the mission. It is important to remember that being a leader is not tied to rank or position and it’s not about rewards. Leadership is about taking care of the people who complete the mission.

For some Airmen fresh out of technical school, stepping out of an aircraft onto foreign soil can bring a blanket of silence and terror upon them. Knowing they are going to be part of the Air Force’s premier installation can put added pressure on them, but first-term Airmen of Team Ramstein mold themselves into competent, reliable and responsible service members.
