General Welsh as Captain America

Well, you don’t see that every day.

General Mark Welsh, Chief of Staff of the Air Force, took the stage at the Air Force Association symposium wearing (a variation of) a Captain America mask:

General Welsh, who once answered a cadet’s question about what he was wearing under his flight suit by dropping his zipper, has long been a popular and effective leader.  His ability to communicate effectively to every Airman — something he does exceptionally well — has been a key to that success.

General Welsh’s entire presentation can be seen here.

Update: Now also noted at the Air Force Times.

    He really made me want to stay in the Air Force. Finally, a real leader. Yes, a great communicator, but I believe at his core a leader of Airmen! Last one I felt this confident in was General Ron Fogleman. Gen Welsh is a breath of fresh air–seriously. However, it was time for me to go. Felt the call. Oh, and General Fogleman and General Welsh very different, but the common denominator was, “love of Airmen!”
