The varied applications of airpower have involved the full spectrum of USAF aerospace vehicles, support equip- ment, and manpower. As a result, there has been an accumulation of operational data and experiences that, as a priority, must be collected, documented, and analyzed as to current and future impact upon USAF poli- cies, concepts, and doctrine. Fortunately, the value of collecting and documenting our SEA expe- riences was recognized at an early date. In 1962, Hq USAF directed CINCPACAF to establish an activity that would be primarily responsive to Air Staff requirements and direction, and would provide timely and analyti- cal studies of USAF combat operations in SEA. Project CHECO, an acronym for Contemporary Historical Examination of Current Operations, was established to meet this Air Staff requirement. Managed by Hq PACAF, with elements at Hq 7AF and 7AF/13AF, Project CHECO provides a scholarly, "on-going" historical examination, documentation, and reporting on USAF policies, concepts, and doctrine in PACOM.

    United Nations A/61/260 General Assembly Distr.: General 15 August 2006 Original: English Sixty-first session Item 64 (a) of the provisional agenda* Elimination of racism and racial discrimination: elimination of racism and racial discrimination Status of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination Report of the Secretary-General 1. By its resolution 2106 A (XX) of 21 December 1965, the General Assembly adopted and opened for signature and ratification the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, invited the States referred to in article 17 of the Convention to sign and ratify it without delay and requested the Secretary-General to submit to it reports concerning the state of ratifications of the Convention, which would be considered by the Assembly at future sessions. 2. In section II of its resolution 60/144, the Assembly reaffirmed that universal adherence to and full implementation of the Convention are of paramount importance for the promotion of equality and non-discrimination in the world; reiterated the call made by the World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance, in paragraph 75 of the Durban Programme of Action, to achieve universal ratification of the Convention by 2005 and for all States to consider making the declaration envisaged under article 14 of the Convention; and endorsed the grave concern expressed by the Commission on Human Rights in its resolution 2005/64 to the effect that, with 170 ratifications and only 46 declarations, the deadline for universal ratification decided by the Conference had, regrettably, not been realized.
