International Honor Roll CHIEF OF STAFF OF THE AIR FORCE & CHIEF MASTER SERGEANT OF THE AIR FORCE INTERNATIONAL HONOR ROLL (IHR) The International Honor Roll (IHR) is a prestigious tribute to international officer and senior non-commissioned officer alumni of the Air University who have attained the highest military or other prominent positions in either a military or civilian capacity. The Air University, on behalf of the Chief of Staff of the Air Force and the Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force, and in coordination with the Under Secretary of the Air Force, Office of International Affairs (SAF/IA), hosts the IHR Induction Ceremony at Maxwell Air Force Base to recognize those officers and senior non-commissioned officers that meet IHR induction criteria, on a biennial basis. *Nominees must attain Commander of the Air Force or Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force equivalent, or higher, in either a military or civilian capacity. The IHR program enables senior-leader engagement, directly supports NSS and NDS imperatives to strengthen mutually beneficial alliances and partnerships and demonstrates the value of USAF PME to partner nation alumni. WE WERE HONORED TO INDUCT OUR NEWEST 22 HONOREES ON 19 APRIL 2024. For any questions please CONTACT US. BACKGROUND: IHR was an initiative of the Vice Chief of Staff of the USAF, General John L. Piotrowski, in 1985, and was designed by the International Officer School to facilitate senior-leader military engagement with international partners and build upon global alliances. IHR was dedicated in February 1988 by the Secretary of the Air Force, Edward "Pete" C. Aldridge Jr. Any qualified international alumni who had ever attended select Air University courses since the first allied officer students in 1946 were inducted.
