Our armed forces exist solely to ensure our nation is safe, so that each and every one of us can sleep soundly at night, knowing we have 'guardians at the gate.

On behalf of the United States Air Force, I want to use this medium to say a big thanks you for your prayers, support and love towards the military force world wide. It is my prayers that God bless you and keep you safe.

I reflect on the past 31 years...
From my Army beginnings at pilot training in Fort Rucker to the culmination of my Air Force career as Deputy Commander of AFSOC, I am humbled and honored to have been able to serve with the great men and women of our U.S. military. I am thankful to my family, friends, and fellow leaders who helped and stood by me along the way.
What we have accomplished over the past 31 years is truly inspiring. I am excited for what lies ahead and for the future of the Air Force, AFSOC, and our Air Commandos. The legacy and what it means to be an AFSOC Airman is something I will always carry proudly.
