On 23rd Nov 1963 at Kunsan Air Base, South Korea a detachment of US Air Force B-57 Canberra bombers were parked on an alert pad each with a live nuclear weapon in their bomb bay and ready to fly at a moment's notice. At 0400 klaxon horns aroused the crews from their slumber and they rushed to their waiting aircraft, for what they likely thought was just one more drill  But this morning was different. As the crew strapped themselves into their cockpits, they were told to await a signal to fly their war mission… With targets in North Korea, China, and the Soviet Far East, the aircrews instinctively knew they would be flying one-way missions. But they had no idea as to why they were facing potential oblivion. I talk with US Marine Veteran John F. Davies who has researched the little-known story of the military response to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

Our guest today is Colonel (Ret) Jon "Press" Wheeler, a highly qualified fighter pilot and senior leader who flew with the United States Air Force (USAF).Colonel Wheeler received his commission from the United States Air Force Academy in 1996, and attended undergraduate pilot training at Vance Air Force Base in Oklahoma.Colonel Wheeler flew the F-16 Fighting Falcon for most of his career. He served with fighter squadrons that were stationed in the United States, and in South Korea, and he flew combat missions in the Middle East.Colonel Wheeler was one of the first cadre of pilots to develop and train to use the F-16 in support of Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) missions. Those "Sandy" missions are typically done with the support of the A-10 Warthog (which we focused on in Episodes 9 and 10).Colonel Wheeler was one of the elite few who were selected to be part of the initial instructor pilot cadre for the F-35 Lightning II fighter in the USAF.His most senior assignments were as Vice Commander of the 8th Fighter Wing at Kunsan Air Base in the Republic of Korea; and as Wing Commander of the 33rd Fighter Wing, which is a tenant at Eglin Air Force Base in Florida, and is home to the first F-35 training wing under the Air Education and Training Command (AETC), which focuses its efforts on training the next generation of Airmen to prepare them for their future in the Combat Air Forces.Throughout his career, Colonel Wheeler has had a penchant for training, so our discussion focuses on his experiences and his approach to training new fighter pilots, and his approach to leadership.We hope you enjoy this episode.Go Bold!

He always showed an interest in being a guest and we finally found a time to make it happen. We talk about the difference between the USMC and USAF and his experiences working with the Air Force for the last twelve months. We talk about our branches of services, some things he would change, and we also just talk as two friends would.

Episode #13 is the new Command Chief of Kunsan Air Base, Wolf Chief #24, CMSgt Thomas Schaefer. Chief Schaefer recently arrived to Kunsan Air Base from Nellis AFB. Chief prioritizes developing Airmen and this line of effort provided me with an opportunity to speak to him yesterday to discuss the Airpower Leadership Academy. At the end of the meeting, I told him I leave Korea in a week and if he has time for a podcast, I would love to host him. He checked his calendar and said, “what about tomorrow?” Today I ask why he joined the Air Force after graduating with a Criminal Sociology degree from the University of Arizona and I ask what he did for almost two years prior to enlisting. He shares a moment from 23 years ago when he was about 23-years old. His manager offered him a promotion at the grocery store he was working at. Instead of accepting the manager's offer, he decided right then, in that moment, that he wanted to join the military and resigned. He talks about his four kids and the support his wife, CMSgt Diane Schaefer gave him when he was offered this position as a Command Chief. This is his second assignment with Kunsan's current Wing Commander, Colonel John Gallemore. We talk about what makes a good team and working relationship. I ask him what things, if any would he change within the Air Force and he had some really good suggestions that I could get behind. Towards the end we talk about his top mentors throughout his career. He lists people off and we make an observation as to what all four of his mentors have in common.

My guest today for episode #8 is CMSgt Andy Shone. Chief Shone is the current Defender Chief at Kunsan Air Base. This podcast in itself is unique because it is the first time, I interviewed someone that I had not previously spent time with prior to the podcast. I was fortunate that there are plenty of Security Forces airmen on base that knew him and shared information about him with me prior to our podcast. One of his Tech Sergeants said, “Chief Shone is known for giving motivational speeches to get people fired up as if it was halftime at a football game.” Through the help of his Security Forces Airmen, Chief Shone and I were able to have a good conversation. Chief Shone had a lot of experience and ideas to share. He is an avid reader and shares a couple of his favorite books. I asked him how he motivates airmen within the challenging career field of Security Forces. We talk about thinking critically and self-reflecting. One SNCO told me that Chief Shone is a great listener, so I asked him how he developed that skill and maintained it throughout the ranks while everyone is looking to him to provide answers. He shares a story about recognizing his facial expressions as a SNCO and realizing how his behaviors were making him unapproachable to his team. When I started this podcast, I wanted to focus on identifying leadership concepts and behaviors to adopt and become better from it. This 90-minute conversation hits what my vision was when I began.

My guest today is CMSgt Kendell Clark, the current Wizard Chief and RAPCON Chief Controller at Kunsan Air Base. This is my second assignment with Chief Clark as we spent a year at Osan together. Chief Clark has been in the Air Force for 27 years and today he shared his insightful thoughts and experiences. He recognizes some of the ways that he has changed and became better throughout his years of Air Force and life experience. For anyone that doesn't make it past the halfway point of this podcast, Chief Clark says that he welcomes and appreciates it when someone of any rank comes directly to him and tells him a problem with an organizational policy or within the facility. He brings up his mentor, CMSgt Scott Rawlings a couple times during the podcast. Towards the end we try to uncover what made Chief Rawlings his top mentor. I conclude that it is the individual investment Chief Rawlings has towards select individuals. However, this is purely an assumption and I hope one day I can get a few minutes of Chief Rawlings' time to ask him some questions and figure out what he attributes to be his best assets as a leader. Chief Clark and I discuss his upbringing, golf, why people always root for underdogs, the direction he wants to see our career field go towards, benefits of having Korean Air Force air traffic controllers and United Stated States Marine Corps air traffic controllers train alongside the United States Air Force at Kunsan, and much more.

Today, for episode #1 I got the chance to speak to Command CMSgt Ronnie Woods, the 23rd Wolf Chief of Kunsan Air Base. For those of you who are not veterans of the Air Force, the Command Chief is typically the most senior enlisted position of his or her base. CMSgt Woods talks about his routine and the daily life and expectations of a Chief in his position. We talk about Chief's ideas on leadership. The discussion leads us to the late 90s and the second supervisor of his career at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana. Chief Woods credits SrA Anthony Brown for saving his career and inspiring him to not be strictly business at work. To lead from the human element. The story of SrA Brown is an example that leadership does not only come from the most experienced, or oldest, or highest-ranking individuals of an organization. Leadership characteristics and life altering inspiration can come from all tiers within an organization. This includes the youngest and the lowest ranking. Wolf Chief and I talk about the book What Got You Here Won't Get You There by Marshall Goldsmith. A book he claimed to be one of his favorites and suggested that I read. I found the book interesting as it examined leadership through a different lens. The traditional way that people learn and improve their leadership capabilities is through emulating people they admire, reading, and being attentive to their behaviors. Most books suggest concepts such as improving self-awareness or showing compassion and empathy for people. This book takes a different approach to being a better leader. This book identifies some of the most natural human characteristics you and I do on a daily basis that pushes people away from us. This book doesn't suggest more leadership ideas to apply in your daily life. This book identifies the things we must stop doing to be a better leader and person at work or at home. Our discussion lasts just over an hour and a half. I feel honored that the Command Chief accepted my invitation to be the first guest on my show. I am extremely grateful that Chief Woods found the time to have this discussion with me and was willing to share his life experience with me and all who are willing to listen. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to him talk and I'm hopeful I am not the only one who gained something from these 90 minutes.
