Narration:
Downtown Orlando reached a patriotic fever pitch as cheering crowds and popular music complemented colorful floats and fluttering flags during the city’s 19th Annual Veterans Day parade conducted Nov. 10, 2018.

Among the dozens of school bands, first responder units, and veteran organizations marched more than 50 Soldiers from the 143d Expeditionary Sustainment Command, a U.S. Army Reserve logistics command compromising more than 10,000 Soldiers and headquartered near the heart of the City Beautiful . [Orlando]

The unseasonably warm temperature matched the warm reception given to the Soldiers from participants and attendees alike.

The parade gained greater significance as the festivities marked the centennial anniversary of Armistice Day, the date that marked end of the First World War laid the inspirational foundation for America to create a national holiday dedicated to veterans from every war.

Although high praise rightfully belonged to the men and women in uniform, many Soldiers marching that day expressed their pride and gratitude to their friends and loved ones on the homefront.

About Moody Bridge Chat

Bridge Chat's purpose is to create cohesive, high-performing teams that foster trust and connection through flexible and consistent small group discussions; in direct response to overwhelming feedback from the CSAF 21's Resilience Tactical Pause.

Caring for our Wingmen is what defines us as Airmen, so we must work to get to know our teammates and the challenges they face. We all have the same responsibility of creating the workplace we want and supporting the people we share our lives with.

Bridge Chat topics are posted here monthly to encourage small group discussions within teams. Beginning the process of recurring discussions can be difficult, but will become easier with time and reinforce the Flying Tiger culture.

To help us initiate and facilitate these discussions, we have included a guide that defines roles and ground rules.

The Flying Tiger Bridge Chat Facilitator provides facilitator trainings for base personnel. Their goal is to create squadron facilitators who take action on ACC's goal of equipping, engaging and empowering Airmen with resilience tools and create high-performing teams who look out for each other. To schedule training, contact 229-257-3211.
