Operation GRIT is for all Airmen across USAFE - AFAFRICA because every Airman Warrior is a leader! It is a synchronized message up and down the chain of command. Its success depends on every Airman to be a leader in their own sphere of influence.

By definition, GRIT is courage and resolve...strength of character. USAFE - AFAFRICA Airman Warriors have courage and determination despite challenges in their way.

• We invest time and resources in what we value
• Investing in Airmen is what we value
• Invested Airmen will become the warriors we expect and need them to be
• USAFE - AFAFRICA Leaders are expected to invest, mentor and listen
• Developing Airmen daily IS the mission
