    Air Force Sexual Assault Court-Martial Summaries 2010 March 2015 – The Air Force is committed to preventing, deterring, and prosecuting sexual assault in its ranks. This report contains a synopsis of sexual assault cases taken to trial by court-martial. The information contained herein is a matter of public record. This is the final report of this nature the Air Force will produce. All results of general and special courts-martial for trials occurring after 1 April 2015 will be available on the Air Force’s Court-Martial Docket Website (www.afjag.af.mil/docket/index.asp). SIGNIFICANT AIR FORCE SEXUAL ASSAULT CASE SUMMARIES 2010 – March 2015 Note: This report lists cases involving a conviction for a sexual assault offense committed against an adult and also includes cases where a sexual assault offense against an adult was charged and the member was either acquitted of a sexual assault offense or the sexual assault offense was dismissed, but the member was convicted of another offense involving a victim. The Air Force publishes these cases for deterrence purposes. Sex offender registration requirements are governed by Department of Defense policy in compliance with federal and state sex offender registration requirements. Not all convictions included in this report require sex offender registration. Beginning with July 2014 cases, this report also indicates when a victim was represented by a Special Victims’ Counsel. Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, sexual assaults against those 16 years of age and older are charged as crimes against adults. The appropriate disposition of sexual assault allegations and investigations may not always include referral to trial by court-martial.

  • Aerospace Valley Air Show
    AEROSPACE VALLEY AIR SHOW OCTOBER 10-11, 2020 EDWARDS AFB SPONSORSHIP & ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITIES ABOUT US The 412th Test Wing is the host wing for Edwards Air Force Base, Calif. -- the 2nd largest base in the Air Force. The wing oversees base day-to-day operations and provides support for over 10,000 military, federal civilian and contract personnel assigned to a 481 square mile installation. The 412th Test Wing plans, conducts, analyzes, and reports on all flight and ground testing of aircraft, weapons systems, software and components as well as modeling and simulation for the U.S. Air Force. There are three core components for this mission: flying operations, maintenance and engineering. Hundreds of significant aviation “firsts” have been accomplished at Edwards. This is where Capt. Chuck Yeager and the Bell X-1 first broke the sound barrier on Oct. 14, 1947, and where other X-planes pushed that record to two, three, four, five and six times the speed of sound and beyond. It is here that the X-15 probed the threshold of space and where the space shuttle first landed on its initial return from earth’s orbit. Today, our combined workforce is still at the cutting edge of aviation technology, developing, testing and evaluating the newest weapon systems and aircraft to ensure reliability for America’s war-fighters. Edwards is the test-bed for today’s premiere aerospace technology programs including the Global Hawk, Hypersonic flight, and of course the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. As aviation-friendly as our unique geography is, there is no more valuable asset than the 13,000 people who live and work here.

  • Boom on the Range by Aaron M
    Eglin’s sprawling test range is evolving to keep pace with today’s smarter, smaller weapons. Boom on the Range By Aaron M. U. Church, Associate Editor 30 AIR FORCE M agazine / November 2015 he Eglin Gulf Test and Training Range is considered one of the crown jewels of the Air Force. The enormous land-and- water range plays host to every phase of an aerial weapon’s life, from development and testing through operational use, Tand the service is determined to preserve this unique capability for weapon evaluation. Overseen by the 96th Test Wing at Eglin AFB, Fla., the range covers some 724 square miles of the Florida panhandle, and its overwater expanse stretches the length of Florida from Key West to Eglin, encompassing a mind-boggling 120,000 square miles of the Gulf of Mexico. It is the Defense Department’s largest range. “We truly believe this is ... one of the nation’s treasures,” 96th Range Group Director Richard Ulrich said in a recent interview. The Air Force wants to “protect this capability for our country,” provid- ing the means to test the next generation of cutting-edge weapons, he said. Longer ranged “standoff” and future hypersonic weapons demand more room for testing. The Small Diameter Bomb II is one of the new wave of weapons pushing the range to advance and expand. “This is one of our first adverse-weather weapons that’s able to acquire, track, and defeat” moving targets, said James F. Carter, miniature-munitions engineering director of the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center’s Armament Directorate.
