Devil Raiders Open Dialogue: Building Family Resilience for a High-Risk Mission

Mrs. Leslie Ballinger, 621st Contingency Response Wing key support liaison, speaks to audience members on her experience as a spouse and the support systems available during the 621 CRW Family Readiness Town Hall event at Travis AFB, Calif., March 31, 2026. First of its kind, the forum was designed to directly address unique challenges faced by the wing's members and dependents by establishing an open dialogue between wing leadership and the families who form the backbone of the "Devil Raider" mission, while also shifting focus to proactive readiness to equip the community with the tools needed long before a crisis occurs.
