Commander’s Action Line

The Commander’s Action Line gives all Air-men a direct link to the 113th Wing command-er for any questions or suggestions regarding the 113th Wing.

The action line can be used to express con-structive points of view on the policies and procedures of the wing, as well as discuss safety and security issues. The goal is to pro-vide you with an accurate, timely response.

Airmen should use this tool after coordinat-ing problems or concerns with supervisors, first sergeants or commanders. If you’re not satisfied with the response or are unable to resolve the issue, e-mail the action line at [email protected].
