1. CMC Update May 201327 May 2013
Always Ready. We must be ready, always! Our missions require us to maintain a steady,
on-demand, world-wide capability. We must take care of ourselves, our aircraft, and our
mission systems. Get ready, Be ready, Stay ready!
Mission Focused. We are a National Asset that can and will respond to any number of
world-wide events. We must remain focused on the mission and prepare ourselves
accordingly. Every single member of the Blackhawk Team is important to mission success.
We must perform when called upon. Clear the Way, Move the Fleet, Save the Day!
Committed to Excellence. Commit yourself to doing things the right way! Demand the
best from our aircraft and mission systems. Do not accept substandard or broken
equipment as a fact of life – gripe it and replace it. Operate “by the book,” PERIOD! Use
ORM and make risk decisions at the right level. Ask questions and learn. I don’t expect
perfection, I expect you to perform your best. I am committed to giving you my best! Train,
Learn, Perform!
Motivated to Succeed. Stay motivated and work hard to make yourself and your
shipmates better. Success breeds success! Take ownership of YOUR squadron and strive
to keep the BLACKHAWKS the best in the Navy. Be proud of your service, be proud of
your squadron!
