Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The 116th Air Control Wing (ACW) is a one of a kind unit that "blends" both active duty and Air National Guard (ANG) personnel under one organization. This "blended" concept was the brainchild of James Roche, the Secretary of the Air Force (SECAF), and was born in the perfect storm of the Secretary of Defense's (SECDEF) plan for modernization, the Air Force (AF) plan to reduce the B-1 bomber fleet described in Air Force Program Budget Decision 824 without identifying a follow-on mission for the Georgia (ANG), and the necessity of operationally fielding the Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (JSTARS) weapons system with aircraft and personnel. The SECAF firmly believed this new "blended organization has the potential of setting a new and higher standard for Future Total Force."
