More than 140 members from the 337th ACS attended the all-call and listened as the general shared some of her experiences in the air battle manager career field and leadership, then took time to answer questions from attendees.
Robinson entered the Air Force in 1982 through the ROTC program at the University of New Hampshire and has served in a variety of positions as an air battle manager.
“No matter what they ask me to do [in the Air Force], I’m going to be the best that I can be at it,” Robinson said.
During the all-call, Robinson talked about her time at Tyndall, one of her first missions and what she learned from it early on in her career.
“I learned how to be better at my job because somebody took the time to sit down with me and teach me different ways to do things, which made me better,” Robinson said. “Teach each other, help each other, sit down and watch one another so we can all learn…together.”
General Robinson has many experiences as a commanding officer, commanding an operations group, training wing and air control wing. One of the things she remembers most is the advice she has received.
“The best compliment I have ever had in my entire career is, ‘when I go to war, I am a radio warrior,’” Robinson said. “I couldn’t imagine a better compliment to the job we [air battle managers] do.
“If you have a good attitude and have a good aptitude, I can say you will be amazed at the opportunities this career field will provide for you,” Robinson said.
