AFRC commander sends holiday message Published Dec. 4, 2010 By Lt. Gen. Charles E. Stenner Jr Commander of Air Force Reserve Command ROBINS AIR FORCE BASE, Ga -- As we celebrate this holiday season and prepare for the challenges of 2011, I want to thank you for serving our nation as Citizen Airmen. You have stepped up to meet every tasking given to you. You airlifted much needed aid to disaster victims, deployed to Afghanistan, helped usher in a new era in Iraq or supported other contingency operations overseas. Some of you didn't leave home this year but your service made it possible for us to support our nation's Total Force missions throughout the world. Thank you for all you do. We know and appreciate the sacrifices your families and employers make to allow you to serve. Much has been asked of you and much will be asked of you in the future as we move forward as a fully operational command. Dee and I wish all of you the happiest of holidays. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your families as we welcome a joyous New Year.
