  • Theater Airlift Lessons from Kosovo
    Theater Airlift Lessons from Kosovo by Lt Col Rowayne A. Schatz, USAF This basic doctrine presents the guiding principles of our Service and our view of the opportunities of the future… As airmen, we must understand these ideas, we must cultivate them and, importantly, we must debate and refine these ideas for the future.1 General Michael E. Ryan Chief of Staff, USAF Operation Allied Force, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) military operation to compel Serbia to cease hostilities against ethnic Albanians in Kosovo and allow a peacekeeping presence on the ground, was the first major war in history fought exclusively with air power. NATO air forces flew over 38,000 sorties from 24 March through 9 June 1999 to allow NATO to achieve its political objectives in Kosovo.2 Although you may not have heard or read much about them, air mobility forces were key to the success of the air war over Serbia. The air mobility team moved enough airmen and equipment to increase the number of air expeditionary wings in Europe from three to ten, provided aid directly to thousands of Kosovar refugees, and deployed a large US Army contingent to Albania—all at the same time. In the words of Colonel Scott Gray, the USAFE Assistant Director of Operations during Operation Allied Force, "This was a phenomenal success, enabling the forces which forced Milosevic to back down while sustaining the refugees he created until they were able to go home.3 According to AFDD1, "Air and space doctrine is an accumulation of knowledge gained primarily from the study and analysis of experience, which may include actual combat or contingency operations as well as equipment tests or exercises."4 I am a firm believer that doctrine is key to warfighting.

  • 2003-III-13 Research Director
    behavior research center’s Latino Poll NEWS RELEASE Contact: Earl de Berge LTLP 2003-III-13 Research Director DEMOCRAT LATINO VOTERS IN ARIZONA FAVOR WESLEY CLARK. HOWARD DEAN AND JOE LIEBERMAN CLOSE BEHIND Phoenix, Arizona, October 2, 2003. Half of registered Latino Democrats in Arizona have a preference for who they will support in the upcoming Democratic presidential primary in Arizona. And, while Howard Dean and Joe Lieberman are close on the tail of Wesley Clark, Clark is ahead despite only recently entering the race. Among those with a preference, Clark has 25 percent of the Latino vote, a six-point lead over Howard Dean who is at 19 percent and eight points ahead of Joe Lieberman, who claims third place with 17 percent. Dick Gephardt is in fourth place with 14 percent of the vote, while John Edwards attracts roughly ten percent. Further behind is John Kerry at six percent. At the bottom with less than five percent each are Bob Graham, Al Sharpton, Dennis Kucinich and Carol Mosely Braun. The strength of Wesley Clark is impressive considering he has only been in the race a few weeks and his number one position among Latino voters may be a reflection of the generally conservative and the patriotic/pro-military profile of many Latino voters. At the same time, the fact that 48 percent of Arizona’s Latino voters remain uncommitted suggests with months of campaigning ahead, the outcome is anything but certain. Not all Latino voters are Democrats and each year the proportions are shifting gradually toward the GOP.

Harmon was one of several distinguished Army officers to come from the Harmon family. His father graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1880 and later served as Commandant of Cadets at the Pennsylvania Military Academy. Two older brothers, Kenneth and Millard, were members of the West Point class of 1910 and 1912, respectively. The former served as Chief of the San Francisco Ordnance District during World War II; the latter reached flag rank and was lost over the Pacific during World War II while serving as Commander of the Pacific Area Army Air Forces. Hubert Harmon, born on April 3, 1882, in Chester, Pennsylvania, followed in their footsteps and graduated from the United States Military Academy in 1915. Dwight D. Eisenhower also graduated in this class, and nearly forty years later the two worked together to create the new United States Air Force Academy. Harmon left West Point with a commission in the Coast Artillery Corps, but he was able to enter the new Army air branch the following year.
