Maintainers with the Michigan National Guard's 127th Maintenance Group, agile combat employment team, referred to as the, "ACE Team," paired with tactical air control party personnel assigned to the Kansas National Guard's 284th Air Support Operations Squadron, creating a unique training dynamic in Alpena, Michigan, May 18-25, 2024. The TACP Airmen communicate directly with fighter aircraft during close air support missions in joint combat environments, making them ideal trainers for the A-10 Thunderbolt II maintainers tasked with the new ACE mission set.

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.
