Out & About with the Chief: Safety
The 5 Bomb Wing Safety’s mission is to promote an environment that maximizes combat capability through mishap reduction – “Mission First, Safety Always!” This is done by aggressively tracking and preventing mishaps in all three safety aspects: weapons, flight, and ground. Eight active duty and four civilian professionals implement a safety-first mindset across the wing, ensuring Warbirds use sound risk management both on and off duty! Wing Safety Airmen support the mission by advising senior leaders and supervisors, conducting annual unit assessments and base-wide safety spot inspections, and providing specified training for 5th BW personnel, assuring safe mission execution.
