    Aerospace World By Suzann Chapman, Managing Editor USAF Presses On With B-1B Cuts Last summer’s controversial pro- posal by the Air Force to reduce its B-1B fleet by one-third and consoli- date the remaining B-1Bs at just two bases will take effect this year, ac- cording to a report USAF officials provided to Congress. USAF plans to reduce its combat- coded bomber fleet to fewer than 100 USAF photo by SSgt. Krista M. Foeller aircraft. The move, the service said, “incurs some risk.” Air Force officials insist, however, that any risk “will be mitigated by mod- ernizing the remaining B-1 aircraft.” Service officials wanted to make the B-1 cuts last year, but that plan was thwarted by a Senate budget amendment that prohibited using 2001 funds for that purpose. The B-1 fleet was running $2 bil- lion behind in modernization funding across the Future Years Defense USAF plans to cut the B-1B bomber fleet by one-third this year. Overall, the Program. By trimming the fleet, USAF service said it will take the long-range strategic bomber force—B-1Bs, B-2s, said, “Our new long-range strike force and B-52s—down to fewer than 100 aircraft. will be more effective, survivable, and supportable.” these changes.

You now have a program. We designed this Historical Handbook of National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency Leaders as a useful reference work for anyone who needs fundamental information on the leaders of the NGA. We have included those colleagues over the years who directed the National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA) and the component agencies and services that came together to initiate NGA-NIMA history in 1996. The NGA History Program Staff did not celebrate these individuals in this setting, although in reading any of these short biographies you will quickly realize that we have much to celebrate. Rather, this practical book is designed to permit anyone to reach back for leadership information to satisfy any personal or professional requirement from analysis, to heritage, to speechwriting, to retirement ceremonies, to report composition, and on into an endless array of possible tasks that need support in this way. We also intend to use this book to inform the public, especially young people and students, about the nature of the people who brought NGA to its present state of expertise.

  • Czar 52; a Case Study of Failed Leadership
    Czar 52; A Case Study of Failed Leadership CEHC 345-9502; Leadership Ethics in Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security, and Cybersecurity University at Albany, State University of New York Samael O’Brien Former United States Air Force and United States Coast Guard 001283366 2018Dec11 1 Samael O'Brien Preface In a dynamic leadership climate, errors are bound to happen. Negligence in leadership has become an all too common issue in military command structures and has continually proven to be a shortcoming of modern military leadership hierarchies. Apathy and non-compliance flourished in the case of Czar 52. On the 24th of June 1994, tragedy struck Fairchild Air Force Base when all 4 United States Air Force officers on board Czar 52, a Boeing B-52H Stratofortress, crashed.1 An example of apathetic, improper command, and reporting procedure, the Fairchild AFB incident is more than simply an accident. It is an event that can be learned from. The Fairchild AFB incident was caused by a plethora of conglomerated actions and inaction. As such, blame cannot be directly placed on one individual. The overall command hierarchy, however, can be combined as a single major factor in this calamity. Both private sector and public sector leadership can learn from these events to develop new strategies that tackle this issue from the lowest level possible. Proactivity and critical inquiry are key in preventing future issues like the Fairchild AFB catastrophe. Significance of this Case Study This breakdown of proactive, effective leadership is certainly worth further analysis and investigation. The military operational climate, even though thoroughly enforced, has a myriad of examples where rules are metaphorically bent.
