SSgt Brendan Bonin and SSgt Brandon Rushing give us some insight on what it takes to be a Black Rope at the 343rd Training Squadron and we get an up close look at how they prepared for drill down.

The primary mission of the 343d MTF Black Rope Program is to instill and
demonstrate Air Force customs and traditions.

To earn a Black Rope, an airman must:

- Perfect 27 drill movements with zero demerits
- Perfect 22 reveille and retreat ceremony movements
- Exemplify dress and appearance standards with zero demerits upon
inspection (Service Dress/OCP's)
- Pass a white glove room inspection conducted by a MTL with zero demerits
- Maintain an 80% GPA in technical training

Once an airman has completed all of the above and earned their Black Rope:
- Safely march their respective flights to and from training environment
- Provide expertise for all upcoming airmen drill evaluations
- Conduct reveille and retreat for the Security Forces Museum
- Represent the 343rd TRS and the 37th TRG at all Drill Down Competitions

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.
