  • 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.
