Command Philosophy

Our Mission

The mission of Training Squadron Two is to forge warriors of the air.

Our Vision

VT-2's vision can be summed up in the Latin phrase Exacue Bellatores Aerios, meaning to forge, through difficulty, aerial warriors. We will forge exceptional warriors by providing the most demanding, challenging, and intense training we can safely conduct in the air and on the ground.

Guiding Principles

We will accomplish our mission by following these simple principles.

  1. Be where I am supposed to be.
  2. When I am supposed to be there.
  3. Doing what I am supposed to be doing.
  4. How I am supposed to do it.

If I have a question about any of these, I will ask someone.

Purpose

To forge exceptional aerial warriors who possess the needed mental and physical skills required to meet the demanding missions of military aviation. We owe this to the American people, the military forces, CNATRA, Training Wing Five, our families, and ourselves.
