In a world where global militaristic partnerships are vital, breaking down language barriers is not just a strategic advantage—it's a mission imperative that ensures harmonious collaboration, operational success, and a united front in the face of any challenge. Meeting that imperative is at the heart of the Language Enabled Airman Program (LEAP), a Department of the Air Force initiative designed to identify, develop, and sustain Airmen and Guardians with foreign language and cultural skills to enable efficient cooperation among partners on joint military operations.
