“That's the thing that makes us us, we are all warfighters no matter what our AFSC is, we're all war fighters. Whether it's Airman Leadership School all the way up to the Air War College, we have to have a curriculum that is relevant to everyone, but also relevant for their role as warfighters.”

- David Bonner, Air University chief historian
