These honors reflect the exceptional professionalism, innovation, and dedication of the men and women at Travis who support the financial readiness of our Airmen and the broader mission of the United States Air Force.
financial stewardship in service to our Nation, managing a $1 billion payroll for 16,000 personnel and overseeing a $500 million budget in support of a 1-Star Command. Their work underpins the only Air Mobility Command installation executing all four of its primary mission sets, enabling 32,000 missions across eleven Combatant Commands.
integrity, respect, and excellence. This commitment is reflected in the highest Defense Equal Opportunity Climate Survey ratings in the wing and in achieving a 100 percent civilian position fill rate. The 60 CPTS has also distinguished itself as a pioneer in workforce development and personnel processing. It established the first official SkillBridge location within an Air Force Comptroller Squadron, created a Palace Acquire Program, and acquired off-network laptops to digitize in- processing and reintegration, eliminating paper delays and significantly reducing member wait times. These initiatives strengthen the future of the Air Force financial management enterprise and set new benchmarks for efficiency.
60th Comptroller Squadron for their extraordinary accomplishments, their unwavering dedication to mission readiness, and their profound contributions to the strength of the United States Armed Forces. Their innovation, leadership, and commitment to excellence bring great credit upon themselves, the United States Air Force, and our Nation.
