Luck- ily,Airmen from MacDill Air Force Base were watching over U.S. Special Operations Command airborne personnel during their requalifying jump training in the area. “My initial thought was, I know what to do… I just have to do it.” said Senior Airman Ralecia Ogburn, recounting how she remained calm under pressure.“All of my training has prepared me for this moment.” After the skydiver impacted the ground, Ogburn and Alexander, aero- space medical technicians assigned to the 6th Medical Operations Squad- ron, immediately rushed to the scene and provided urgent, life-saving medical aid. The patient, an England native, sustained a broken neck and back and was stabilized by the two Airmen until an ambulance ar- Photo by Airman 1st Class Caleb Nunez rived to transport him for follow-on care.

Tom Valeri, a branch manager with a local financial service, served as the guest speaker for the event, which educated Airmen about how to bet- ter their credit so that their finances won’t hinder their opportunities for houses, cars and other purchases that require exceptional credit ratings. Throughout lunch, members learned about managing credit, how to properly pay off debts and how to better utilize credit. Valeri said there is a plethora of ways people can get into problems with their credit; in fact, just a credit inquiry can lower a credit score by a few points. Photo by Staff Sgt.

Kasich Chairman, Committee on the Budget House of Representatives The Honorable Herbert H. Bateman Chairman The Honorable Norman Sisisky Ranking Minority Member Subcommittee on Military Readiness Committee on National Security House of Representatives In 1992, the Air Force decided to reconfigure its fighter force into smaller squadrons. This decision occurred at a time when the Secretary of Defense was attempting to reduce defense operating and infrastructure costs. We evaluated the cost-effectiveness of the Air Force operating its fighter forces in smaller squadron sizes and the implications this might have on the Secretary of Defense’s efforts to reduce defense infrastructure costs. We focused on the C and D models of the Air Force’s active component F-15s and F-16s. Because of your interest in this subject, we are addressing this report to you. To achieve directed force structure reductions, the Air Force has been Background reducing the number of F-15 and F-16 aircraft in its inventory. Between fiscal years 1991 and 1997, the Air Force plans to reduce its F-15 aircraft from 342 to 252. Over this same period, the Air Force plans to reduce its F-16 aircraft from 570 to 444. In 1991, F-15 and F-16 aircraft were configured in 42 squadrons.

  • U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF): Background and Issues for Congress
    U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF): Background and Issues for Congress Andrew Feickert Specialist in Military Ground Forces April 28, 2015 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RS21048 U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF): Background and Issues for Congress Summary Special Operations Forces (SOF) play a significant role in U.S. military operations and, in recent years, have been given greater responsibility for planning and conducting worldwide counterterrorism operations. U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) has about 66,000 Active Duty, National Guard, and reserve personnel from all four services and Department of Defense (DOD) civilians assigned to its headquarters, its four Service component commands, and eight sub-unified commands. In 2013, based on a request from USSOCOM (with the concurrence of Geographic and Functional Combatant Commanders and the Military Service Chiefs and Secretaries), the Secretary of Defense assigned command of the Theater Special Operations Commands (TSOCs) to USSOCOM. USSOCOM now has the responsibility to organize, train, and equip TSOCs. While USSOCOM is now responsible for the organizing, training, and equipping of TSOCs, the Geographic Combatant Commands will continue to have operational control over the TSOCs. Because the TSOCs are now classified as sub-unified commands, the Services are responsible to provide non-SOF support to the TSOCs in the same manner in which they provided support to the Geographic Combatant Command headquarters. The current Unified Command Plan (UCP) stipulates USSOCOM responsibility for synchronizing planning for global operations to combat terrorist networks. This limits its ability to conduct activities designed to deter emerging threats, build relationships with foreign militaries, and potentially develop greater access to foreign militaries.
