To both: Ave otque valei G ener a l J. P. Mc C onnell A little reflection makes a skeptic; a lot of reflection makes a believer. —L o u is P asteur HILE assembling some notes for this article, I ran across the cited quotation attributed to the famous nineteenth century Wchemist. Realizing that my comments would appear in the Air University Revietc barely a month after I had left ofBce as the Air Force Chief of Staff, it occurred to me that Pasteurs thought would be a useful guide for vvriter and prospective reader alike. It is hardly necessary for me to call attention to the flood of criticai comment that has been directed toward a wide variety of govemmental activities, particularly in the last year. I have often thought that much of this criticism has shown signs of what Pasteur would have called skepticism because it has been founded on much speculation, little fact. and far less reflection. I have no desire to be labeled a skeptic, nor can I see at this point in time any benefit that could result from criticai comment by me on recent controversial events. Such events merit far deeper examination and “a lot of reflection”— by myself as well as others—before valid conclusions can be drawn. In this article, therefore, I shall discuss briefly some of my long-held views and convictions and make some observations on my recent tenure in ofiBce. In looking back over the past few years, I recall vividly the personal distinction inherent in my nomination as Chief of StafF and confirmation by the Senate. VVithout question, the confidence and trust embodied in these actions represent the highest honors that have been bestowed on me during my lifetime. But symbols of honor are temporal, and, in my own mind at least, that initial sense of honor was fully matched by the deep sense of obligation and responsibility that I felt during my entire tour of duty. During those early months of 1965, I, like others before me, had a base of experience through Service as the Vice Chief of Staff under General Curtis E. LeMay. Although I occupied that position for less than a year, the experience proved beneficiai for a number of reasons. One was the fact that I became intimately familiar with both joint and Service issues of particular interest to the Air Force. More importantly, I gained what I regard as indispensable to a Chief of Staff: a thorough knowledge of the environment of govemment in which sênior military ofBcers must operate to fulfill their responsibilities. By “environment” I am referring not only to the division of authority among govemment oíficials and the procedures through which military proposals are considered but also to the policies and attitudes of the individuais who must become involved in the decision-making process. I am confident that most of my readers are well informed on the legal and functional aspects of govemment operations and the procedural machinery involved in our system of decision-making as it pertains to national security. However, I am not as certain 4 AIR UNIVERSITY REVIEW that there is an equal degree of understanding this relationship has not always been fully ancr about the nature of national security problems universally accepted as a practical reality wher to be solved or the realistic roles of sênior applied to a decision on a particular proposa_ military officers in the process of decision- or issue. making at the national levei.
