Research is also an integral part of graduate education, providing graduates with in- depth knowledge, critical thinking skills, and problem solving abilities. At the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), our faculty and students engage in research with the goal of sustaining the technological supremacy of the United States Air Force (USAF) and the Department of Defense (DoD). AFIT maintains active partnerships with our Air Force’s organizations and operational communities as well as the DoD and other federal agencies to maximize the contributions of our research programs to national needs. Our faculty and students also engage in collaborations with researchers at universities throughout the nation to advance the state-of-the-art in a variety of disciplines. AFIT cooperates with commercial enterprises to ensure timely transfer of new technology to US industry through Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRADAs) whenever appropriate. This Research Report is prepared annually to report on the significant contributions of this institution; to solicit continued involvement and support from our Air Force, DoD, and other federal partners; and to encourage new sponsors to participate in AFIT’s research programs. AFIT welcomes new opportunities to engage in research projects that are of mutual interest to our customers, faculty, and students. Heidi R.

  • GENERAL STONE's ELEVATED RAILROAD Portrait of an Inventor Mark Reinsberg
    GENERAL STONE'S ELEVATED RAILROAD Portrait of an Inventor Mark Reinsberg Part III several months after the close of the Philadelphia Centennial and the dismantling of his monorail exhibit, Roy Stone lived an ForA intensely private life, leaving no documentation whatever. One can imagine that the General returned to Cuba, New York, dis- heartened by the debacle and deeply involved in the problems of bankruptcy. There were health problems as well. Towards the end of winter, 1876/77, Stone resolved to cash in an old IOU. On a gloomy and introspective March day, the General traveled to Belmont, the seat of Allegany County, New York.He did so in order to make a legal declaration, an affidavit needed "for the purpose of being placed on the invalid pension role of the United States/' State of New York County of Allegany ss: On this 12th day of March A.D. 1877 personally appeared before me clerk of said County ...

  • Gord and Knights Tournament in Byczyna As an Example of History
    European Research Studies Journal Volume XXIV, Special Issue 1, 2021 pp. 609-622 Gord and Knights Tournament in Byczyna as an Example of History Management in Public Space – Interactive Historical Marketing and its Educational and Promotional Values Submitted 11/12/20, 1st revision 25/01/21, 2nd revision 23/02/21, accepted 20/03/21 Justyna Małysiak1, Piotr Wojnarowicz2 Abstract: Purpose: The aim of the paper was to present the results, in which the authors explored the subject of history management in public space on the example of the gord and knightly tournament in Byczyna. It also allowed the authors to investigate the subject of historic marketing and its educational and promotional values. The authors referred to the specific situation related to the prevailing Covid-19 epidemic and its impact on historical reconstruction and related aspects of management and marketing. Design/Methodology/Approach: The research methodology is based primarily on personal surveys, expert interviews, and a confrontation with the latest research literature. Findings: The study of the dynamic subject of history management in public space on the example of the gord and tournament in Byczyna made it possible to find the basic opportunities and threats which people undertaking such an enterprise may take into account. The global pandemic, which began during the research, added several new factors, often radically changing the situation of public history managers. The use of research methods, supported by the latest literature on the subject, allows for a cross-sectional presentation of the subject matter, as well as a challenge for further research. Practical Implications: The study may have a positive impact on both the development of regional and national tourism and the development of interactive education.

    VOL. 46 NO.25 JUNE 23, 2006 Services programs best in AF By Butch Wehry Academy Spirit staff Each year, the Air Force recognizes its best Services units and the Academy’s outdoor recreation and golf programs are winners. Mr. Chuck Alfultis, 10th Mission Support Group’s Outdoor Recreation Center director, and Mr. Ed Ainsworth, Academy Golf Club, received the trophies at the Air Force’s Services Worldwide Conference in Keystone, Colo., June 14. Outdoor recreation won the same award in 1996 and Mr. Alfultis shared some thoughts about why the Academy wins. “There are three key factors that make for an outstanding outdoor recre- ation program,” he said. “They are base location, facility and staff. First, we are located in an area with an abundance of outdoor recreational opportunities. Second, we are centrally located on the Academy and have the space to accom- modate the storage of our more than $2 million worth of equipment and supplies.

    Acquisition & Logistics Excellence NAVSEA Bids Farewell to Longest Serving Civil Ser- vant in DoD NAVSEA OFFICE OF CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS PUBLIC AF- FAIRS (APRIL 7, 2020) WASHINGTON—Sarkis Tatigian, who began his Navy career at the age of 19 during the Second World War, passed away earlier this week, leaving behind a nearly 78-year legacy of service to the Department of Defense. At the time of his death, Tatigian, the longest serving civil servant in the history of the DoD, was serving as Naval Sea Systems Command’s (NAVSEA) Small Business Advocate. “Mr. Tatigian truly lived a life dedicated to advocacy and the service of others,” said NAVSEA Executive Director James Smerchansky. “His decades of work oversaw the expansion of the small business industrial base and more than $100 bil- lion in contracts awarded to diverse, small businesses. As we bid fair winds and following seas to Mr. Tatigian, NAVSEA will greatly miss his presence, but we will never forget the positive impact he made on this command and the entire U.S. Navy.” Tatigian’s civilian career with the Navy began in July 1942 as a junior radio inspector at the naval aircraft factory in the Philadelphia Navy Yard and the Navy Office of Inspector of Naval Aircraft in Linden, New Jersey.

  • “Never Have I Seen Such a Charge”
    The Army of Northern Virginia in the Gettysburg Campaign “Never Have I Seen Such a Charge” Pender’s Light Division at Gettysburg, July 1 D. Scott Hartwig It was July 1 at Gettysburg and the battle west of town had been raging furiously since 1:30 p.m. By dint of only the hardest fighting troops of Major General Henry Heth’s and Major General Robert E. Rodes’s divisions had driven elements of the Union 1st Corps from their positions along McPherson’s Ridge, back to Seminary Ridge. Here, the bloodied Union regiments and batteries hastily organized a defense to meet the storm they all knew would soon break upon them. This was the last possible line of defense beyond the town and the high ground south of it. It had to be held as long as possible. To break this last line of Union resistance, Confederate Third Corps commander, Lieutenant General Ambrose P. Hill, committed his last reserve, the division of Major General Dorsey Pender. They were the famed Light Division of the Army of Northern Virginia, boasting a battle record from the Seven Days battles to Chancellorsville unsurpassed by any other division in the army. Arguably, it may have been the best division in Lee’s army. Certainly no organization of the army could claim more combat experience. Now, Hill would call upon his old division once more to make a desperate assault to secure victory. In many ways their charge upon Seminary Ridge would be symbolic of why the Army of Northern Virginia had enjoyed an unbroken string of victories through 1862 and 1863, and why they would meet defeat at Gettysburg.
