Safety video promotes driving, recreation safety

  • Published
KIRTLAND AIR FORCE BASE, N.M. (AFPN) --  The Air Force's top safety officer appears in a video for the service's annual "101 Critical Days of Summer" safety campaign, which began May 23 and ends Sept. 2.

In the production, Maj. Gen. Wendell Griffin, the Air Force chief of safety and commander of the Air Force Safety Center, addresses driving, riding motorcycles, water sports and other recreational activities.

Summer is a season of greater risk to Airmen because they spend more time traveling and engaged in outdoor activities from Memorial Day through Labor Day than they do in the fall, winter and spring, according to safety officials.

The four-minute video is available for viewing on the Air Force Safety Center's Web site,  http://www.afsc.af.mil/.
