ACC enlisted induct Gen. Holmes into Order of the Sword

U.S. Air Force Chief Master Sgt. David Wade, command chief of Air Combat Command, gives a speech to explain why U.S. Air Force Gen. Mike Holmes, commander of ACC, was selected as an Order of the Sword recipient during an Order of the Sword presentation ceremony at the Riverview Event Center on Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia, Aug. 26, 2020. The U.S. Air Force echoes the long-standing honor of chivalry and respect founded in the Middle Ages in which NCOs would present a sword to their kings and leaders as the ultimate sign of respect and loyalty.
