What is Project Tuskegee?

Air Force Global Strike Command in partnership with Tuskegee University and Angelo State University, hopes to increase opportunities for various underrepresented groups within local communities and AFROTC cadets to be exposed to opportunities available as an Air Force Global Strike Command Striker. Due to the command's unique historical ties with the Tuskegee Airmen, its founding partner is Tuskegee University with the goal of cultivating relationships with communities and universities across the nation. This initiative will increase awareness of educational and career opportunities in the command's rated and non-rated operations career fields. 

Mission

  • Present the many opportunities within Air Force Global Strike Command, such as an Eighth Air Force aircrew member or Twentieth Air Force missileer

  • Reinforce the historical connection between Tuskegee Airmen and Air Force Global Strike Command

  • Create a culture of unity that welcomes talent from all walks of life to Striker Nation

Opportunity

Striker Airmen will collaborate and coordinate with AFROTC cadets from Tuskegee University and others.  As a part of the program Strikers will: 

  • Visit university AFROTC Detachments

  • Engage on a national level or other large events

  • Increase opportunities for underrepresented groups to take advantage of opportunities available to become a Striker

  • Participate in observances that highlight diversity

  • Educate students in Science, Technology, Engineering, Aircraft and Mathematics related expos, conferences, camps and air shows that engage with underrepresented youth and diverse audiences
