BIOGRAPHY
UNITED STATES AIR FORCE
CHIEF MASTER SERGEANT JOHN Q. GUARD (See T&Q p. 258)
The first paragraph introduces the individual with his or her full rank
and name, followed by organization, base and location. The
sentence(s) that follow should describe the subject’s overall title
authority/responsibility, which could be compared to the equivalent of
a mission statement for the position. The top line of this paragraph
should be roughly parallel to the top edge of the photo and justified
on both the left and right side. Because the subject ’s fu l l rank
and title has been utilized in the first sentence, abbreviated rank and
last name should be used in all subsequent text. (See T&Q p. 259)
The second paragraph should be a summary sketch of the subject’s
career. It is not intended to be a complete list of all assignments;
include only the most significant ones. Begin with how the member
entered the Air Force, i.e., month/year of enlistment, followed by
technical training course and month/year of graduation. Preferably, this
paragraph should be anywhere from 15–25 lines, wrapped around
the official photo and justified on both the left and r ight . I t can
include, but is not limited to, the following information: A statement that
describes the breadth and depth of a full career; include if it spanned
two or more services or components; include participation in named
operations (e.g., Operations NOBLE EAGLE, IRAQI FREEDOM,
ENDURING FREEDOM, etc); participation in any special assignments,
positions, AGR or Stat Tour positions; and any key projects affected by
member’s leadership (e.g., Chief Guard was instrumental in the state’s
aircraft mission conversion from the F-16 Fighting Falcon to the RQ-1
Predator). An official biography is a public affairs communication tool similar to a news release, therefore it is recommended that
members review AP Style Guidance for Official Biographies. (See T&Q p. 258)
In a third paragraph, traditional Drill-Status Guard members may include any current or past civilian occupations or experiences
that are relevant to their military career. This is the member’s chance to highlight what he or she brings to the table. F o r
e x a m p l e , “ Chief Guard served as a high school history teacher in several Oklahoma schools for more than 22 years. For
the past three years, she has served as the principal of Sweet Home High School in Smithboro, Oklahoma.” As another example,
“Chief Guard has served as the chief compliance officer for a Fortune 500 company for the past 5 years, and has more than 15
years of experience in the field.” (Do not use specific company names, as this can imply government endorsement). The final
sentence in the narrative should read “Prior to his/her current position, Chief Guard was the (position title, organization, base, and
location).” If your narrative contains three paragraphs, it will be the final sentence in the third paragraph; if your narrative only
contains two paragraphs, then this sentence will stand alone as a third paragraph. (See T&Q p. 260) Recommend using no more than 5 lines
NOTE: Ensure biography is reviewed by your public affairs office. (See T&Q p. 258)
