8 Aug 13 - FSGA/HAAF Future
Question: Where do you see FSGA/HAAF during your tenure?
Answer: My focus during my tenure will be to take care of our people and continue to provide World Class Customer Service to our force. It will be a tough go in FY14, more so than FY15, but we are posturing ourselves for a better future. Sequestration, a CR in FY14 will all affect our installation - my promise is to keep you informed and guide us through this period. I am working on my Command Philosophy and an Annual Training Plan document - both will be released and briefed at the SOTG in October - we will know where we stand for the rest of FY14 at that point and I will have plotted a way ahead for us. The bottom line is that we are going to have to tighten our belts more and focus on taking care of each other and our customers. We have been here before and we will tough this one out as well. Thank you for what you do everyday.

8 Aug 13 - Furlough Exemptions
Question: Future furlough exemptions if furloughed in FY14, can we just carry over the same exemption for the fire fighters that we already have? Can we look at requesting an exemption for the 9-1-1 Center?
Answer: If faced with furloughs again in FY14, I will re-look this decision.

31 Jul 13 - WAAF
Question: Do we get any use out of WAAF?
Answer: Yes, rotary wing aircraft use it. Grey Eagle is housed out there, and congressional and senior Army leaders arrive/depart out of WAAF. We currently are in the process of extending the runway to 6500 feet so that we can lure commercial carriers to the area. A win-win for us and the surrounding communities.
