In grand pomp and circumstance, service members marched onto the parade field. Dec. 6 for the opening ceremony of Yama Sakura 63. Yama Sakura is a bilateral training exercise held twice a year with members of the Japanese Ground Self Defense Force (JGSDF) and the U.S. military. Yama Sakura began 30 years ago. It is designed to enhance the combat readiness and interoperability between the two nations. The two countries, while quite different in culture and language, exchange ideas, tactics, techniques and military experiences during the exercise, now on its 31st iteration. Soundbite includes U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Francis Wiercinski - CG USARPAC/JGSDF and Lt. Gen. Toshiaki Tanaka - CG NEA. Produced by Sgt. William James Boyd and Sgt. Anthony Jones.

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.
