Ask most people about the mission of the US Air Force and they’ll probably mention something about protecting the nation by flying jets around or something equally vague. In existence since its formation from the old US Army Air Corps in the fall of 1947, this branch of the US military—supporting more than 689,000 men and women—recently announced an update to its mission statement to better focus the service on the jobs at hand. The new mission statement is succinct and to the point: “To Fly, Fight and Win…Airpower Anytime, Anywhere.”
