54 Job Types Down to 10? Air Force's Top Enlisted Leader Looks to Merge Maintenance Specialties

During a recent speech the Air Force's top enlisted leader, Chief Master Sgt. David Flosi, singled out Special Operations Senior Airman Marlene Guerrero.

Flosi praised her for "kicking a**" by juggling being a fuels technician who was also trained on hydraulics and, on top of that, serving as a dedicated assistant crew chief. The top noncommissioned officer recounted how she had fixed a forward-deployed aircraft with a hydraulic issue.
 
The shoutout, at the Air and Space Forces Association's conference near Washington, D.C., last month, underscores what is quickly becoming one of Flosi's main initiatives as the face of the service's enlisted force: He wants airmen to be able to take on more tasks and is pushing an initiative to reduce the number of job types called Air Force specialty codes, or AFSCs, and reducing where there might be overlap.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
