Gen Woodrow to discuss his aspirations for the Hawaii Air WNational Guard in 2017. How do you feel after your first six months on the job as the 154th Wing Commander? I am incredibly blessed to be associated with such a first class group of professionals. Admittedly, it’s quite intimidating to be a Wing Commander responsible for such a vast array of people and missions. But, what I’ve learned, is that if you can create an environment of achievement, reward, fun... and get out of the way, our Wing members will consistently surprise you with innovation and new levels of accomplishment. Do you have any plans for the Wing as it pertains to 2017? and Sr Enlisted, so that all members are aware, and If anything, our transformation to becoming an can take advantage of the myriad of opportunities “Operational Reserve” will only continue, as the to develop themselves as professional warriors and pace and quantity of our deployments demonstrate. leaders. What I hope to do is offer more to all our Airmen when it comes to professional development, What do you think we can improve on? opportunity, and growth. We have a force Interview by development board at the Wing level, where we I think, as a whole, we are exceptional at mission Tech. Sgt.

I would ANG is experience, and the 154th Wing is living 154 Wing Public Affairs like to institutionalize that concept with all our CCs proof of that. Additionally, because we are an Staff Writer 4 | KUKA’ILIMOKU • JANURY 2016 • www.154wg.ang.af.mil ohana, we know how to take care of each other on a personal basis. What I wish we’d improve on is taking care of each other professionally. Awards, decorations, professional feedback, Performance Reports, all of these take time and effort, and culturally our organization is not as good as it should be. We need to up our game organizationally; we should have higher expectations in these areas. Is there anything in particular that stands out from 2016? Wow, so many things: first Raptor deployment, many continuous deployments, numerous leadership changes. Sadly, the one thing that sticks out is the senseless tragedy of losing two of our Airmen in Guam on separate deployments. While both incidents were completely preventable with better risk management, it does remind us all how precious, and precarious life is and we shouldn’t take anything for granted... most of all each other. Is there anything else you would like to Brigadier General add? GREGORY S. WOODROW Commander 154th Wing Yes! My undying appreciation and gratitude to Interview by all the fine men and women of the 154th Wing - for Tech.

What are your goals as the new commander of the 292nd? To continue the proud tradition of excellence of the 292nd and hopefully, leave the organization better than it is today. Maj Jesse B.

This conflict has been categorized as a "police action", not a war, therefore little has been published by the Chief of Military History, Department of the Army or by individuals. However, the material available to our historian is believed to be of such importance as to justify its publication in this volume of our official history. While Washington National Guard units did not actually serve in Korea during this "police action", our Air National Guard and certain artillery units were inducted into service to replace like regular air and army units withdrawn for service in Korea. However, many Washington men participated in the action as did the 2nd and 3rd Infantry Divisions, both of which had been stationed at Fort Lewis and other Washington military installations.
