12 The 19th Airlift Wing hosted a C-130J Super Hercules Virtual Weapons System Council, Jan. 25, bringing together a team of experts from across the Air Force, Air National Guard and Air Force Reserves – including seven bases spanning eighteen different time zones.
Chaired by 19th Airlift Wing commander, Col. John Schutte, the council provided an opportunity for the C-130J community to make enterprise-wide decisions.
“The sun never sets on Herk Nation,” said Schutte. “Due to COVID-19, we convened this meeting of the Weapon System Council in a hybrid virtual and in-person format to allow senior leaders across the enterprise to synchronize our efforts to accelerate change, vigorously pursue Full Spectrum Readiness, and maximally develop the force.”
