A not-so-capital capital idea

The Air Force is now requiring all official publications to capitalize airman in all uses.

“Airmen in the United States Air Force are the heart and soul of our unique fighting force and should be identified as a proper noun,” [Force Chief of Staff Gen. John] Jumper said in a release. “Capitalizing the word ‘Airman’ recognizes their historic achievements and signifies our unique contributions to fighting and winning America’s wars. It shows we’ve earned the respect a proper name imparts.”

This follows the Army decision in October to capitalize soldier in all uses.
