May is Asian American & Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, a celebration of Asians and Pacific Islanders in the United States. This year’s theme is “Advancing Leaders Through Collaboration.”
Although 8% of Soldiers in the 16th Combat Aviation Brigade identify as AAPIs, their presence and hard work is critical to the success of the Raptor Brigade and Army team. They bring with them a legacy of courage, service, and sacrifice that helps make our military more lethal than at any point in our shared history.
When we talk about AAPI community, we are referring to two large groups of people who bring a broad and rich diversity to our ranks. Many AAPI cultures form an important part of not only our history as a country, but also our current DNA as a people.
Stay tuned throughout the month as we celebrate the legacy, sacrifice and achievements of the AAPIs in our unit as they share their proud heritage and culture. show less
