00:04.940 --> 00:06.920
on december 21st U . S . Air Force

00:06.920 --> 00:09.087
Chief of Staff General CQ Brown , Jr ,

00:09.087 --> 00:11.087
visited 48th fighter wing Airmen to

00:11.087 --> 00:13.142
thank them for standing watch during

00:13.142 --> 00:15.309
the holiday season . We're all part of

00:15.309 --> 00:17.142
NATO . If we really want to work

00:17.142 --> 00:19.253
together as a team , we have to think

00:19.253 --> 00:19.120
about how do we build a team before we

00:19.120 --> 00:21.176
get into the conflict too often ? We

00:21.176 --> 00:23.398
build us first and then think about how

00:23.398 --> 00:25.509
we bring in our allies and partners .

00:25.509 --> 00:27.509
We've got to reverse that . Another

00:27.509 --> 00:29.509
point Brown discussed was on how to

00:29.509 --> 00:29.350
improve Air Force culture specifically

00:29.350 --> 00:31.017
regarding on how airmen build

00:31.017 --> 00:33.183
resilience and to ensure their wingmen

00:33.183 --> 00:35.406
are doing the same . Some of us need to

00:35.406 --> 00:37.628
see a mental health provider because we

00:37.628 --> 00:39.850
need that that support , but many of us

00:39.850 --> 00:39.700
just need somebody to talk to someone

00:39.700 --> 00:41.867
we can lean on when things are getting

00:41.867 --> 00:44.089
a little rough . The question is , what

00:44.089 --> 00:46.311
do you do to make yourself resilient as

00:46.311 --> 00:45.660
you move forward and how do you help

00:45.670 --> 00:47.781
the airmen to your left or your right

00:47.781 --> 00:49.892
to make sure they're being taken care

00:49.892 --> 00:52.059
of as an additional show of thanks and

00:52.059 --> 00:54.226
appreciation . Brown recognized a wide

00:54.226 --> 00:56.226
variety of enlisted service members

00:56.226 --> 00:56.140
alongside their peers for the work that

00:56.140 --> 00:56.590
they do
