    SPRING 2015 - Volume 62, Number 1 WWW.AFHISTORICALFOUNDATION.ORG Call For Papers Violent Skies: The Air War Over Vietnam A Symposium Proposed for October 2015 Four military service historical foundations—the Air Force Historical Foundation, the Army Historical Foundation, the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation, and the Naval Historical Foundation—recognize that a half century has passed since the United States became militarily engaged in Southeast Asia, and hope to sponsor a series of conferences involving scholars and veterans, aimed at exploring aspects and conse- quences of what once was known as America’s Longest War. For the first conference in the series, since all military services employed their combat aircraft capabilities in that conflict, the leaders of the four nonprofit organizations agree that the air war over Southeast Asia offers a compelling joint topic for reflective examination and discus- sion. The intent is to host a symposium on this subject in the national capital region on Thurs- day and Friday, October 15 and 16, 2015, potentially extending into Saturday, October 17. Other stakeholder organizations will be approached to join as co-sponsors of this event. The organizers of the symposium envision plenary and concurrent sessions to accommodate a wide va- riety of topics and issues. Panel participants will be allotted 20 minutes to present their research or discuss their experiences. A panel chair will be assigned to provide commentary and moderate discussion. Com- menters from academia, veterans, Vietnamese émigrés, and scholars from the region may be invited to pro- vide additional insights. Panel/Paper proposals may employ both chronological and topical approaches: Examples of chronological subjects can include: U.S.

Jacob Morgan 21st Space Wing Public Affairs PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — April was designated the Month of the Military Child by Secretary of Defense Caspar W. Weinberger in 1986, recog- nizing the contribution the military child makes as their parent or parents serve in the armed forces. Military children may face several obstacles growing up including frequent moves, family separations and rein- tegration issues. Peterson AFB honors the sacrifices made by thousands of military children here by holding several events each year during the month of April. “Our children are our true heroes,” said Dorothy Choate, 21st Force Support Squadron Airman and Family Services Flight chief. “They sacrifice daily solely based upon the choices their parents made. They maintain a significant commitment to their families and the military way of life. That is why it’s important to recognize the contribution of military children alongside (U.S. Air Force photo/Dennis Howk) See Child page 11 PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. — Airman 1st Class Rodolfo Amaya, 21st Civil Engineer Squadron fire protection technician, helps Jason Long spray a fire hose at the Peterson Child Development Center April 15.
