SECRETARY FOR THE AIR FORCE
So President Trump has nominated Heather Wilson as Secretary for the Air Force. This is apparently the first time a former serving Air Force officer has held the position. Wilson graduated from the Air Force Academy in 1982. She served as an Air Force officer in Europe during the Cold War and on the National Security Council Staff under President George H.W. Bush. Her husband is a retired Air Force colonel, her father and grandfather were pilots and she holds a private instrument rated licence.
