Visiting @EAA’s AirVenture Oshkosh last week was a great reminder of the Air Force’s past, present, and future! I saw epic flyovers, connected with recruiters & teams from across the Total Force, and had the honor of enlisting new Airmen & Guardians. Truly inspiring to engage with the next generation in aviation and innovation.

Congratulations to @USSpaceForce Col Anil Menon on your successful flight to the International Space Station today! Thank you @NASA for being a great partner to our Guardians and leading cutting-edge research.

#SemperSupra #AlwaysAbove

[NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman @NASAAdmin]

Welcome aboard the International Space Station, @astro_anil.

Your mission is just getting started. Wishing you and your crewmates a successful expedition as you advance research and inspire millions back here on Earth.

We remember and honor the life of Senator Lindsey Graham — Airman, leader, and public servant. He answered the nation's call in uniform, building an over 30-year career in the Air Force as a military attorney, prior to and during his decades-long service in Congress.

Senator Graham’s lifelong commitment to our Airmen, national defense, and the American people leaves behind a legacy of service to others. On behalf of the Department of the Air Force, I extend my deepest condolences to his family, friends, colleagues, and all who had the privilege of serving alongside him.

From B1-B operations to base construction prepping for the B-21 arrival, the @28thBombWing is ready for their mission today and modernizing for the future.

Very proud of the Ellsworth AFB Airmen delivering long-range airpower and strategic deterrence every day!

[Office of the Secretary of the Air Force @SecAFOfficial]

I am aware of recent reports involving an Air Force officer protesting at the United States Capitol. Let me be clear: I expect every Airman and Guardian to comply with all laws and policies governing personal conduct, political participation, and the wear of the uniform. Americans place their trust in us. We cannot, and will not, compromise the trust of the Nation.

Good order and discipline are critical to the DAF’s mission, and rigorously maintaining the highest standards of conduct on & off duty are an absolute must for all Airmen and Guardians.

The Department takes allegations of misconduct seriously, including any that might undermine the nonpartisan nature of our military. Pursuant to a thorough investigation - which will proceed unimpeded - commanders will ensure appropriate disposition when holding service members accountable in accordance with military law and due process.

Minot AFB Airmen stand watch every day delivering combat capability that supports two-thirds of the nuclear triad. Such professionalism and commitment are the foundation of deterrence, and continued investment in nuclear modernization ensures we maintain what’s needed to keep America safe.

[Office of the Secretary of the Air Force @SecAFOfficial]

The outstanding workforce and F-35 production line in Fort Worth, TX reflects what’s possible when we partner closely with industry to deliver combat power at speed and scale.

Proud to honor America’s 250th watching the strength and precision of Air Force flyovers.

[U.S. Air Force @usairforce]

Tonight, U.S. Air Force aircraft soared over the nation’s capital in celebration of #Freedom250, honoring America’s 250th anniversary. 🇺🇸

Some moments are worth watching more than once... especially with your sound on!

[Sean Parnell @SeanParnellASW]

One year ago—American warfighters executed one of the most complex and daring military operations in modern history.

Operation Midnight Hammer was HISTORIC.

We are deeply saddened by the eight lives lost in today’s tragic crash at Edwards AFB. We mourn this loss and honor the service of our Airmen, civilians, and contractors who work every day to advance our mission. I send my sincerest condolences to their families and loved ones.

Eighty-two years ago, Allied forces stormed the beaches of Normandy into the hell of war — answering the call of duty in defense of freedom.

Today, we honor their courage, remember their sacrifice, and remain forever grateful for the liberty they secured for generations to come.

[U.S. Air Force @usairforce]

2,100+ service members. Multiple nations. One airspace.

Honored to have Vice President @JDVance join us at the @af_academy graduation last week. Thank-you for the words of encouragement and celebrating our next generation of Airmen & Guardians!

[U.S. Air Force @usairforce]

Years of training. Days to deliver.

When Super Typhoon Sinlaku struck Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Airmen from the 374th Airlift Wing rapidly deployed personnel, aircraft, and critical supplies to support humanitarian assistance and disaster relief operations.
