Support RAND Make a tax-deductible charitable contribution at www.rand.org/giving/contribute www.rand.org Preface Writing about the profession of arms in a February 2012 white paper, then–Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff GEN Martin Dempsey wrote, “We must continue to learn, to understand, and to promote the knowledge, skills, attributes, and behaviors that define us as a profession.”1 In January 2014, the U.S. Air Force announced an investigation into officers of the 341st Missile Wing who were alleged to have cheated on a proficiency exam. In February 2014, the U.S. Navy announced an investigation into cheating by trainers at a school for nuclear power reactor operators. These examples highlight behaviors that most would agree are unbecoming to the military profession. In March 2014, in response to these and other ethical lapses by military personnel, then–Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel announced the appointment of RADM Margaret Klein to be his special assistant for military professionalism. In this report, we consider the U.S. Air Force definition of professionalism—“A personal commitment and loyalty to Air Force standards and expectations framed within an environment of shared trust, guided by Air Force Core Values”2—as a starting point to address the question: What can the Air Force do to increase its professionalism? The research reported here was commissioned by the vice commander of U.S. Air Force Air Education and Training Command and conducted within the Manpower, Personnel, and Training Program of RAND Project AIR FORCE as part of a fiscal year 2015 project titled, “Air Force Professional Development.” This report is intended for leaders of all ranks throughout the Air Force. RAND Project AIR FORCE RAND Project AIR FORCE (PAF), a division of the RAND Corporation, is the U.S. Air Force’s federally funded research and development center for studies and analyses. PAF provides the Air Force with independent analyses of policy alternatives affecting the development, employment, combat readiness, and support of current and future air, space, and cyber forces. Research is conducted in four programs: Force Modernization and Employment; Manpower, Personnel, and Training; Resource Management; and Strategy and Doctrine. The research reported here was prepared under contract FA7014-06-C-0001. 1 Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, “America’s Military: A Profession of Arms,” white paper, February 2012. 2 Profession of Arms Center of Excellence, Strategic Roadmap: United States Air Force Profession of Arms, Air Education and Training Command, May 2015, p. 4. iii Additional information about PAF is available on our website: www.rand.org/paf This report documents work originally shared with the U.S. Air Force on September 30, 2015.

  • Defense Reforms the Goldwater-Nichols
    Advance Questions for Honorable Michael L. Dominguez Nominee for Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness Defense Reforms The Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986 and the Special Operations reforms have strengthened the warfighting readiness of our Armed Forces. They have enhanced civilian control and clearly delineated the operational chain of command and the responsibilities and authorities of the combatant commanders, and the role of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. They have also clarified the responsibility of the Military Departments to recruit, organize, train, equip, and maintain forces for assignment to the combatant commanders. In your responses to advance questions prior to your previous nomination hearing on July 31, 2001, you indicated that "there are dynamics today different from 15 years ago that may warrant review of some provisions [of Goldwater- Nichols], such as the personnel assignment rules and how we select joint specialty officers." You expressed an interest in exploring these issues to ensure the services have "sufficient flexibility in the management of our personnel resources in a joint environment." Based on your experience as the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Manpower and Reserve Affairs, are there specific modifications to the Goldwater-Nichols Act for which you see a need? The Goldwater-Nichols Act deserves credit for creating a strong framework for today’s joint warfighting capabilities. Two decades of U.S. military successes bear witness to this. However, while operational jointness has matured, the personnel system for Joint Officer Management has not kept pace. In the Global War on Terrorism, members are integrated within Joint Task Force organizations, serving various tour lengths on a rotational basis.

After looking at locations in Florida, Wilbur came to Montgomery, Alabama in February 1910 and decided to open the nation’s first civilian flying school on an old cotton plantation near Montgomery that subsequently become Maxwell Air Force Base (AFB).
