What does the Joint Relations Officer (JRO) do?

• A. Managing contacts with the AFA and promoting growth in Silver Wings
• B. Budgeting
• C. Preparing candidates
• D. Running the National Headquarters

Answer: (A)

The Joint Relations Officer focuses on building and maintaining relationships with the Air Force Association and promoting the growth of Silver Wings, the sister service organization. This role acts as the liaison between the detachment and AFA, coordinates joint activities, and champions recruitment and collaboration with Silver Wings to strengthen the overall organization. Budgeting is handled by the Finance/Treasurer, preparing candidates falls under the Candidate Officer's responsibilities, and running the National Headquarters is the realm of national leadership, not a local JRO. So the emphasis on managing contacts with AFA and helping Silver Wings grow is exactly what the JRO does.
