Matt Lohmeier 🇺🇸

Their courage will never be forgotten. 🇺🇸

The video you referenced has been brought to our attention. I have asked the staff to swiftly investigate so that our leaders can take appropriate action. @BuzzPatterson

Overnight, on President Trump’s orders, the Department of War commenced OPERATION EPIC FURY — the most lethal, most complex, and most-precision aerial operation in history. The Iranian regime had their chance, yet refused to make a deal — and now they are suffering the consequences. For almost fifty years, Iran has targeted and killed Americans, always seeking the world’s most powerful weapons to further their radical cause. Last night, unlike any previous president, President Trump began dealing with this cancer. We will not tolerate powerful missiles targeting the American people. Those missiles will be destroyed, along with Iran’s missile production. The Iranian navy will be destroyed. And, as President Trump has said his entire life, Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. The United States did not start this conflict, but we will finish it. If you kill or threaten Americans anywhere in the world — as Iran has — then we will hunt you down, and we will kill you. Our warriors are the best in the world, and they are fully unleashed to achieve our objectives. May God’s providence protect them in this vital mission.

I'm excited to cheer on SrA Jasmine Jones, who is representing @TeamUSA at the Winter @Olympics, as she starts her competition in the bobsled starting this weekend! You can send her a note of encouragement here - olympics.sandboxx.us @usairforce foxnews.com/sports/us-air-…

We're excited to cheer on our Airmen in the Olympics - they make us proud!

🚨This account from a Venezuelan security guard loyal to Nicolás Maduro is absolutely chilling—and it explains a lot about why the tone across Latin America suddenly changed. Security Guard: On the day of the operation, we didn't hear anything coming. We were on guard, but suddenly all our radar systems shut down without any explanation. The next thing we saw were drones, a lot of drones, flying over our positions. We didn't know how to react. Interviewer: So what happened next? How was the main attack? Security Guard: After those drones appeared, some helicopters arrived, but there were very few. I think barely eight helicopters. From those helicopters, soldiers came down, but a very small number. Maybe twenty men. But those men were technologically very advanced. They didn't look like anything we've fought against before. Interviewer: And then the battle began? Security Guard: Yes, but it was a massacre. We were hundreds, but we had no chance. They were shooting with such precision and speed... it seemed like each soldier was firing 300 rounds per minute. We couldn't do anything. Interviewer: And your own weapons? Didn't they help? Security Guard: No help at all. Because it wasn't just the weapons. At one point, they launched something—I don't know how to describe it... it was like a very intense sound wave. Suddenly I felt like my head was exploding from the inside. We all started bleeding from the nose. Some were vomiting blood. We fell to the ground, unable to move. Interviewer: And your comrades? Did they manage to resist? Security Guard: No, not at all. Those twenty men, without a single casualty, killed hundreds of us. We had no way to compete with their technology, with their weapons. I swear, I've never seen anything like it. We couldn't even stand up after that sonic weapon or whatever it was. Interviewer: So do you think the rest of the region should think twice before confronting the Americans? Security Guard: Without a doubt. I'm sending a warning to anyone who thinks they can fight the United States. They have no idea what they're capable of. After what I saw, I never want to be on the other side of that again. They're not to be messed with. Interviewer: And now that Trump has said Mexico is on the list, do you think the situation will change in Latin America? Security Guard: Definitely. Everyone is already talking about this. No one wants to go through what we went through. Now everyone thinks twice. What happened here is going to change a lot of things, not just in Venezuela but throughout the region.

The @usairforce and @USSpaceForce are moving now on @POTUS direction to fast-track defense contracting: driving our industrial base to align with national security priorities to ensure the US keeps winning! whitehouse.gov/presidential-a…

And we're just getting started @SecWar!

I’ve decided to bring duty identifier patches back because the Air Force is made up of different specialties, each with a unique role in our mission to generate airpower. We are a unified force working together to win.

@usairforce & @usspaceforce moving fast to implement @SecWar guidance overhauling acquisition processes. Driving reform from top to bottom to develop & deliver the best and most lethal warfighting capabilities now! af.mil/News/Article-D…

GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES MILITARY.

Congrats @SpaceX team and thank you @USSpaceForce!

“It’s a rare day when someone earns a Silver Star, with less than 100 being earned during the Air Force era,” said Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Ken Wilsbach. “After hearing Skate’s story, his leadership, decisive action, and skill in the face of danger, I absolutely believe he deserves this honor." af.mil/News/Article-D…

Check out student pilot 2Lt Chase Spencer at Columbus AFB taking on Under Secretary Matt Lohmeier in a pull-up challenge after a CRAFT workout focused on strength and mobility for our newest flyers. Worth the watch!

Once again impressed by our men and women in uniform! Got to train with a new class of student pilots before celebrating with the graduating pilot training class of 26-03. They are all around focused on the right things - the mission and the people. @Columbus_AFB @AETCommand @usairforce

To every veteran who raised their right hand and answered the call — thank you. Today, and every day, we honor you. We are free because of you.

@libsoftiktok @SecWar Will investigate

Andersen Air Force Base is holding a celebration for “banned books week.” “Banned books” refers to p**nrographic books which are availableto kids in public schools across the country. Why is an AF base promoting p**n? Cc @SecWar

@deathxdefeat Thank you. Keep reading

@matthewlohmeier just started 👇 Solid so far

Airmen and Guardians, I want to remind you that your words and actions - both online and in-person - matter. Be smart. Know the rules. Our nation's trust and confidence depend on it.
