WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE — Chief Master Sgt. Grace A. Peterson Airman Leadership School honored 21 graduates in a ceremony Dec. 6 at the Wright-Patterson Club.
Chief Master Sgt. Joseph Joslin, Air Force Materiel Command first sergeant, guest speaker and class mentor, congratulated the graduates on achieving one of the most important milestones in their careers and that they were now trusted with leading people.
“As a supervisor and leader in our Air Force and Space Force, you will be asked to help people through many trying times,” Joslin said. “As much as it can be taxing on you, it will show that you are on the right leadership path. Class 24-Alpha, go out and do great things. Become the supervisor and leader you have always wanted to follow.”
Graduates included airmen and guardians from the Air Force Institute of Technology, Air Force Materiel Command, the 88th Air Base Wing, National Air and Space Intelligence Center, 445th Airlift Wing, and Air National Guard.
ALS is required for staff sergeant selects, and open to eligible civilians, as airmen learn more about leadership and Air Force culture.
