My tenure here is only three years and I'm already looking forward to mentoring my replacement. PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT: I'll advise and guide our junior leaders on career development, such as upgrade training, professional military education, and completing their Community College of the Air Force degree. All our NCOs need to complete their CCAF degrees to compete for promotions and special assignments. Our Air Force is much more technical than it was even five years ago and will continue in that trend as we become a smaller and more agile force. FOSTERING NCO INITIATIVE: I want to ensure our NCOs understand they have the freedom to use their own initiative in decision making and training. Tempered with their own experiences, they will become credible leaders when they know and understand the commander's intent and have the necessary tools and resources to do their jobs in a timely and efficient manner. A command chief is the epitome of dedication and professionalism in appearance, knowledge, upholding standards, and having genuine concern for people. I hope I will not disappoint our commander or our Airmen when it comes to meeting these standards. Why did you join the Air Force Reserve? I missed the Air Force! I completed 10 years active duty and I separated to go back to school. After attending six years of night school, including four years of law school, and working full time for the California Department of Justice, I wanted to go back into a career that I enjoyed and accomplish something for the greater good. Joining the Reserve was a blessing and a great way to grow, mature and see the world. Talk about the road to becoming command chief. I always believed that if I did a good job, gave my best to my unit and my Airmen, and met all training and readiness requirements, promotions would happen for me--and they did. My first mentor, Chief Master Sgt. Thomas Green, was my inspiration. Chief Green mentored me as a young staff sergeant and always told me that I had the right stuff to become a chief. I never forgot those words of encouragement, and in all my subsequent interviews for promotions, when the question came up "Why do you want this promotion?" I always said I didn't want to disappoint my chief. This is another reason why mentoring is such a high priority for me. servist? It all boils down to good communication. With technology - cell phones, BlackBerrys, email, video conferencing - it's not hard to keep the communication link open 24/7. But sometimes I like to go "old school," so if someone has a pressing matter, they can call me. I'm never too busy to take care of our people, one Airman at a time! Tell me about yourself outside of work. I love motorcycles, skiing and baseball. I've only skied in Utah one time, but I remember the snow being incredibly light and fluffy - a big change from our "Sierra Cement" that we have in Northern California. So I'm looking to take on the slopes later this year. And growing up on the north side of Chicago, I'm a Cubs fan who is already saying in June "Wait till next year!" The community is invited to come and celebrate with us.

Our Unit Training Assembly time is short and I don't want to fly a desk on the weekends, so I plan to be out and about every UTA meeting Airmen. My focus will be on what we are doing right, what can we do better, and how their families are doing with the stress of military life. When I came in the Air Force, our motto was "Aim High;" nowadays, I like to tell our Airmen to "Aim Higher." There are great things on the horizon for our Airmen and it's a good time to be in the Air Force. I hope to meet every one of our Airmen. Tell me about your civilian job. I'm fortunate to work for the State of California. I'm allowed 30 days of military duty a year so I can better support the mission. I work in the legal department of the California Air Resources Board, which is part of the California Environmental Protection Agency. Most of my civilian work can be balanced with my Air Force career, but there are times when I have court dates that conflict with a TDY. Luckily, if I have my orders in hand, I can provide the court a copy and have the case rescheduled. My coworkers and bosses are very supportive of my military career. As a leader, how will you face the challenges of being a traditional Re- T. NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY REVISED DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT F-35 OPERATIONAL BASING The United States Air Force (Air Force) has prepared a Revised Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) in accordance with 32 Code of Federal Regulations 989.19(3)(e), whereby information supplementing, improving, or modifying the analyses was incorporated, and factual and typographical corrections were made. Thus, an additional 45-day public review period is sought. Alternative locations for beddowns consist of Burlington Air Guard Station (AGS), VT; Hill Air Force Base (AFB), UT; Jacksonville AGS, FL; McEntire Joint National Guard Base (JNGB), SC; Mountain Home AFB, ID; and Shaw AFB, SC. The proposal includes three beddown scenarios at the Air National Guard/ Air Force Reserve Center locations, with 18 or 24 F-35A aircraft replacing the existing complement of aging fighter attack aircraft. Three beddown scenarios (24, 48, or 72 F-35As) apply to the active duty bases. At Burlington AGS, Hill AFB, Jacksonville AGS, McEntire JNGB, and Shaw AFB, the F-35As would replace current fighter attack aircraft, irrespective of the scenario. No aircraft would be replaced at Mountain Home AFB; the existing based aircraft would remain. The Air Force identified Hill AFB and Burlington AGS as the preferred alternatives for the initial operational beddown. The no-action alternative would result in no F-35A beddown at any of these locations at this time. The proposed action also includes basing of personnel needed to operate and maintain the F-35A, and construction and/or modification of facilities on the bases to support F-35A operational aircraft. F-35A aircraft would conduct training flights from the base and in existing airspace associated with each proposed location. No new airspace would be established as part of the proposed action. The 45-day review and public comment period for the Revised Draft EIS initiated when the Notice of Availability was announced in the Federal Register on 31 May 2013. All comments will be accepted through 16 July 2013 and should be sent by U.S. Postal Service to: HQ ACC/A7PS, 129 Andrews Street, Suite 332, Langley AFB, VA 23665-2769, ATTN: Mr. Nick Germanos.
