  • The Rise and Fall of Missiles in the Us Air Force, 1957-1967
    FLAMEOUT: THE RISE AND FALL OF MISSILES IN THE U.S. AIR FORCE, 1957-1967 A Dissertation by DAVID WILLIAM BATH Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Joseph G. Dawson, III Committee Members, Terry H. Anderson Olga Dror Angela Pulley Hudson James Burk Head of Department, David Vaught December 2015 Major Subject: History Copyright 2015 David William Bath ABSTRACT This dissertation documents how the U.S. national perspective toward ballistic nuclear missiles changed dramatically between 1957 and 1967 and how the actions and attitudes of this time brought about long term difficulties for the nation, the Air Force, and the missile community. In 1957, national leaders believed that ballistic missiles would replace the manned bomber and be used to win an anticipated third world war between communist and capitalist nations. Only ten years later, the United States was deep into a limited war in Vietnam and had all but proscribed the use of nuclear missiles. This dissertation uses oral histories, memoirs, service school theses, and formerly classified government documents and histories to determine how and why the nation changed its outlook on nuclear ballistic missiles so quickly. The dissertation contends that because scientists and engineers created the revolutionary weapon at the beginning of the Cold War, when the U.S. and U.S.S.R. were struggling for influence and power, many national leaders urged the military to design and build nuclear ballistic missiles before the Soviet Union could do so.

  • What Every Airman Needs to Know About Medical Stability Operations
    Feature What Every Airman Needs to Know about Medical Stability Operations Col Stephen Waller, MD, USAF, Retired Lt Col Jose Fonseca, USAF, Retired Col Joseph Anderson, USAF, MC Col James Fike, USAF, MC, Retired Col Sean Murphy, USAF, MC he multidimensional complexity of stability operations has cap- tured much attention in the Air Force. Key features of these op- erations include humanitarian relief, reconstruction of emer- Tgency infrastructure, provision of essential government services, and maintenance of a safe, secure environment. “Military health support” plays an everyday, vital role in each of these features.1 Because stability operations call upon a wide array of unique Air Force capabilities, the service’s future leaders will need an understanding of this aspect of agile combat support and building partnerships to effectively conduct not only these operations but also those involving airpower. January–February 2012 Air & Space Power Journal | 1 Feature Waller, Fonseca, Anderson, Fike, & Murphy Medical Stability Operations In the context of past military campaigns, medical stability operations (MSO) may seem more appropriate for the Red Cross or the US Agency for International Development (USAID), not the Air Force or Depart- ment of Defense (DOD). The new MSO paradigm has vast breadth and many dimensions of support for wider national security goals. This ar- ticle examines some historical successes involving MSOs and lessons learned. It then discusses the many dimensions of these operations, taken from DOD Instruction (DODI) 6000.16, Military Health Support for Stability Operations, which states that they shall “be explicitly addressed and integrated across all MHS [Military Health System] activities includ- ing doctrine, organization, training, education, exercises, materiel, lead- ership, personnel, facilities, and planning.”2 Using this framework, the authors hope to help future Air Force leaders better understand how the DOD implements this essential task, “a core U.S.
