Abstract:
Education is a frequent area of concern when attempting to improve organizational performance. In this paper, absorbing Markov chains were used to assess education levels of civil servants within Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC). The results suggest that AFMC will have 47% of its workforce with an advanced, college degree by the year 2030. Given an increasingly educated workforce within AFMC, ethical implications for management strategy were explored. Specifically, the authors examined the ethics of managing a highly-educated workforce in ways which are procedurally similar to those used for a workforce which was historically less educated. Through a thematic bifurcation, ethical solutions were presented which will either provide more autonomy for the highly-educated workforce or attempt to change the internal credentialing process so that the current management strategies are aligned to a more appropriately-educated workforce.

Abstract:
This article explores the development of policy in the Royal Air Force (RAF) relating to the use of Benzedrine, a potent amphetamine, by aircrews during the Second World War. This policy evolved from total prohibition in September 1939 to cautious approval for the use of the drug on operations in November 1942. Such caution reflected the subjective evidence available about Benzedrine, the media profile of the substance, and wider social and cultural factors relating to the use of drugs during this period. This challenges our understanding of drug history, demonstrating that while amphetamines were framed as a ‘miracle drug’, more nuanced, functional interpretations of the substance were in evidence. In turn, the article examines evidence from the operational context, including new data gathered from questionnaires and interviews with former Bomber Command aircrew and existing oral history material held by the Imperial War Museum. Both policy discussions and operational evidence allows for a re-evaluation of the arguments of Nicholas Rasmussen, who suggests the RAF made use of Benzedrine as a frontline ‘psychiatric medicine’. Such conclusions downplay the significance the RAF attached to the drug’s effects on wakefulness and concerns about the drug’s effects on wellbeing.

Abstract:
Acquisition reform has caused the cancellation or conversion of many military specifications and standards. One of the standards targeted for conversion by Air Force Material Command (AFMC) was MIL-STD-1540. The standard provides details for the testing of launch, upper stage, and space vehicles. AFMC requested that MIL-STD-1540C be converted from a standard to an alternative form of documentation. To answer this request, The Aerospace Corporation and Space and Missile Systems Center used an innovative approach to develop a document that retained the value of the original standard. The new document is MIL-PRF-1540 (a Military Performance Specification). MIL-PRF-1540 is intended for use in the Request For Proposal (RFP) instructions for new procurements of space hardware. The value of MIL-STD-1540C was retained by incorporating it into the already existing MIL-HDBK-340. The revised handbook, MIL-HDBK-340A, is referenced by MIL-PRF-1540 as guidelines only.

Abstract:
Indonesian struggle for West Irian was an essential aspect of Indonesian politics since early fifties. Indonesian Government managed to annex West Irian in the sixties due to a substantial material, technical and diplomatic support by the Soviet Union. The USSR stopped its support in 1965, when Indonesian Army under command of General Suharto undertook a terrific massacre of Indonesian communists, backed by the USA. The first President of Indonesia Sukarno was removed from his post. Suharto turned President and proclaimed the New Order (Orde Baru), manifesting itself in the Army rule over the nation. Despite strong positions of Suharto and his associates, there were many different factions in the Army, while Suharto managed to dismiss all disloyal generals. He also instituted new military orders to praise his loyal servants — The Navy Star (Bintang Jalasena), the Army Meritorious Service Star (Bintang Kartika Eka Pakçi), and Air Force Star (Bintang Swa Bhuwana Paksa) — in 1968. A year later, the West Irian open vote confirmed its joining with Indonesia, supported by the Indonesian military surveyors and army presence. Till the end of the sixties, there were constant tensions in West Timor. Indonesian Government instituted two campaign medals for operations in this area — the Satya Dharma Medal and the Raksaka Dharma / GOM IX Medal. The paper examines these two decorations and their context.

Abstract:
Para uma organização alcançar os seus objetivos o comprometimento dos seus colaboradores é fundamental. Por esse motivo, o entendimento dos fatores que influenciam o comprometimento dos indivíduos para com as suas organizações tem inspirado o trabalho de inúmeros pesquisadores. Ao desafio de comprometer a força de trabalho pode-se acrescentar a dificuldade de fazê-lo em ambientes organizacionais em que convivem indivíduos de pelo menos quatro diferentes gerações. As possíveis diferenças geracionais, no ambiente organizacional, também têm motivado diversos estudos. Tendo como pano de fundo essas questões, o presente trabalho buscou unir os dois temas e teve como objetivo a identificação e a análise do grau de comprometimento organizacional dos oficiais intendentes do Comando da Aeronáutica, pertencentes à Geração X (indivíduos nascidos entre 1965 a 1979) e à Geração Y (indivíduos nascidos a partir de 1980), que são as gerações prevalentes nas organizações, nos dias de hoje. Para tal, foi realizado um levantamento, utilizando-se um modelo de múltiplas bases para mensurar o comprometimento organizacional: a Escala de Bases do Comprometimento Organizacional (EBACO). A escala avalia sete bases do comprometimento organizacional: afetiva; obrigação em permanecer; obrigação pelo desempenho; afiliativa; falta de recompensas e oportunidades; linha consistente de atividade e escassez de alternativas. A análise dos dados obtidos apontou similaridades entre as duas gerações avaliadas, no que diz respeito às bases de comprometimento. Tanto os respondentes da Geração X, quanto os da Y apresentaram um alto comprometimento em relação à base obrigação pelo desempenho e um comprometimento acima da média em relação à base afetiva, bem como um baixo comprometimento em relação às bases obrigação em permanecer e escassez de alternativas. Contudo, houve pequenas diferenças quantos às bases afiliativa e linha consistente de atividade, tendo a Geração X, nessas bases, apresentado comprometimento abaixo da média, e a Geração Y, baixo comprometimento.
For an organization to achieve its goals, the commitment of its employees is essential. Therefore, understanding the factors that influence the commitment of individuals to their organizations has inspired the work of many researchers. To the challenge of committing the working force one can add the difficulty of performing this task in organization environments where at least four different generations are enclosed. Possible generational differences in the organizational environment, have also motivated many studies. Having these issues as a background, the present work sought to unite these two themes, as well as had as its objective the identification and the analysis of the main factors that influence the organizational commitment of the Brazilian Airforce administration officers from the X Generation (individuals born between 1965 and 1979) and from the Y Generation (individuals born from 1980 onwards), for these are the more prevalent generations in the organizations at the moment. In order to achieve this objective, a survey was conducted, using a model of multiple databases to measure organizational commitment: the Scale Bases of Organizational Commitment. This scale evaluates seven bases of the organizational commitment: affective; obligation to remain; obligation for performance; affiliative; lack of rewards and opportunities; consistent line of activity and lack of alternatives. The data analysis indicated similarities between the two generations evaluated regarding the bases of commitment. Both X Generation respondents, as those of Y revealed a high commitment regarding the obligation for performance base and a commitment above average regarding the affective base, as well as a low commitment regarding the obligation to remain and lack of alternatives bases. In relation to the affiliative and consistent line of activity bases, however, a small difference could be observed, where the X Generation presented a commitment below average, and the Y Generation a low commitment.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the development of RAF high command of the Metropolitan Air Force (MAF) during the Second World War (SWW). It sheds new light on the re-organisations of the Air Ministry in 1934, the RAF Command structure in 1936, and the tri-service debate in 1937 concerning the RAF proposal to establish a Supreme Air Commander (SAC). It reveals that while frontline expansion created an impetus for re-organisation, it was operational readiness that was the dominant factor in the re-structuring of the RAF. It examines the transition in RAF frontline organization from the mono-functional command system of 1936 to the multi-functional organisation that emerged after 1943 by looking at command structure and practice, personalities, and operational thinking. This study builds on the established historiography but challenges the accepted explanation of RAF reforms in the 1930s. It addresses a significant gap in the literature concerning the way the frontline was directed by the War Cabinet and the Air Ministry. In doing so it seeks to establish a new starting point for the analysis of RAF high command by providing an assessment of how effective were the RAF reforms of the 1930s to the higher command of MAF operations during the SWW.

Abstract:
Design Build is rapidly becoming one of the most commonly used project delivery methods in the construction industry. The United States Corp of Engineers (USACE) has started implementing its own version of Design Build with the introduction of Military Transformation in April 2005. Per the Department of the Army (2008) Military Transformation is a term employed by the Corps to implement the use of alternate project delivery method as a means of achieving best value. The United States Air Force (AF) and the Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) are expected to establish a target of 75% of all future Military Construction Projects (MILCONs) executed when using the Design Build method. The use of this delivery method results in significant changes to the relationships between the various parties associated with facility project delivery compared to the traditional Design Bid Build method. AFRC construction project procedures and requirements must also change.

Abstract:
Since 1999, Air Force Intelligence officers have been trained, managed, and assigned in accordance with a 'generalist' approach to intelligence disciplines. Specialization is the exception, and intelligence officers are assigned to a variety of missions, disciplines, and commands in an attempt to "broaden" their experience and maximize exposure to various disciplines. Because of this approach, specialization training after completion of the Air Force Intelligence Officer Course has become crucial to intelligence officer success at the unit level. This research examines specialization training provided to intelligence officers assigned to Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) flying squadrons. Information gathered through surveys and interviews of AFSOC squadron leadership, weapons officers, and intelligence officers, coupled with a detailed analysis of AFSOC Intelligence Officer responsibilities and training, was utilized to develop a web-based survey designed to measure intelligence officer performance at unit level AFSOC flying squadrons. The survey results were analyzed to determine areas of strength and weakness, and recommendations for optimizing specialization training were created from the survey results. Recommendations include actions to enhance intelligence at the individual and team level in AFSOC flying squadrons, minor modifications to specialization training, and an alternative intelligence career path which allows increased specialization is discussed.

MBA Professional Report
This MBA Project's objective was to analyze information available to determine if the Air Force should retain or replace its command and control aircraft. To accomplish the objective, research pertaining to the Air Force's aircraft and requirements was conducted along with analyzing new aircraft available that can be modified for current and future missions. The project provides background information about the various missions command and control aircraft perform, as well as the importance of maintaining the capability. Current command and control aircraft, as well as potential aircraft that can replace the existing command and control aircraft, were researched to determine the cost and performance specifications. The current and potential aircraft were analyzed, and factors other than costs were also examined. The challenges facing the Air Force's recapitalization efforts were presented. These challenges include cost and funding priorities; schedule and production lead times; personnel; and facilities and support equipment. The completed product identifies if the Air Force should retain or replace command and control aircraft. Additional areas for further research were listed which could provide more information once more data becomes available to compare with the project findings.

Abstract:
Flying Squadrons are the very substance of an air force. By its nature, the air service is a highly technical one requiring both complex machinery and sound human judgement to function at its peak. The smallest independent unit of an air force is the squadron. Squadrons have a discrete status which makes them ideal candidates for in-depth study. This thesis examines the impact of technology and command on a single squadron's operations because technology and command have been and will remain pivotal in determining the success or failure of the air service. Although the Australian No 1 Squadron has existed almost continually from 1916 to the present, this thesis only examines a specific period of its life. The period 1916-1958 was chosen since the squadron formed as an independent Australian Flying Corps unit in January 1916, served in both World Wars and the Malayan Emergency, returning to Australia to resume domestic operations and training in 1958. Of significance to the work, during the specified period, the Squadron was controlled by both the Army and Air Force, by both the British and Australian Governments, had successes and failures and was an operational and a training unit. The Squadron has thus mirrored the growth and changes experienced by the developing Air Force as a whole. The main purpose of examining such a squadron is that it provides an insight into the development and thinking of the RAAF and highlights pitfalls evidenced in technological and command problems which still plague military staff today. In examining the operations and operational effectiveness of No 1 Squadron, three determinants have been specifically examined: technology, that is the aircraft flown, the commanding officer's personality and his methods and the organisational structure under which the Unit operated. Naturally, all three matured as doctrine, knowledge and experience also matured. The Thesis concludes that when the Squadron is winning, it is generally technology that creates the relative advantage and when loosing, strong leadership in the form of command must come to the fore. The results obtained support the thesis in keeping with contemporary RAAF doctrine, that technology and command strongly impact squadron operations and hence, operational effectiveness.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter examines how an adequate Internal Compliance Program (ICP) for the Royal Netherlands Airforce (RNLAF) was developed. In order to create an adequate ICP, it is essential to determine which legal and other aspects should be incorporated in the ICP framework. To deduct these relevant aspects of the environment the RNLAF operates in, a Political, Economic, Social, Technological and Legal (PESTL) analysis is used. Furthermore, the different ICP frameworks are compared in order to make a combination of them to create the most adequate ICP for the RNLAF. We conclude that this should be a combination of mainly US ICP Frameworks as of the fact that the RNLAF is mostly US orientated. The COSO model as an internationally widely used best practice framework is the core. The combination of the PESTL analysis, the legal framework and the chosen ICP frameworks together result in an 11 pillars ICP, which we consider is the most adequate ICP for the RNLAF. Leading principle in combining all the aforementioned elements, is that the ICP has to be tailored to its organizations’ characteristics (e.g. nature of items, size of the organization, national, regional and global footprint). We understand that there is no one-size-fits-all approach, but one needs to design an ICP that specifically fits the given organizational structure, its size and daily operations.

Abstract:
It is widely acknowledged that an organizational knowledge management strategy is a desired precursor to the development of specific knowledge management (KM) initiatives. The development of such a strategy is often difficult in the face of a lack of organizational understanding about KM and other organizational constraints. This case study describes the issues involved in developing a new KM strategy for the Air Force Material Command (AFMC). It centers around the AFMC KM program manager, Randy Adkins, and his challenges in developing the future KM strategy direction for the AFMC enterprise. The case study begins with a description of the history of the AFMC KM program and the existing KM system, but then focuses primarily on issues to be considered in future strategy development, such as maintaining top leadership support and understanding, conflict with the IT organization, funding cuts, future KM system configuration needs, and outsourcing of KM. The intent of this case study is to demonstrate, using Randy Adkins and AFMC as an example, many common issues that can be encountered as leaders struggle to develop viable KM strategies.

Abstract:
Education is a frequent area of concern when attempting to improve organizational performance. In this paper, absorbing Markov chains were used to assess education levels of civil servants within Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC). The results suggest that AFMC will have 47% of its workforce with an advanced, college degree by the year 2030. Given an increasingly educated workforce within AFMC, ethical implications for management strategy were explored. Specifically, the authors examined the ethics of managing a highly-educated workforce in ways which are procedurally similar to those used for a workforce which was historically less educated. Through a thematic bifurcation, ethical solutions were presented which will either provide more autonomy for the highly-educated workforce or attempt to change the internal credentialing process so that the current management strategies are aligned to a more appropriately-educated workforce.

Abstract:
As the political process ceded prominence to military operations, this chapter illustrates how NATO transitioned from peace to war, dealing with a myriad of operational challenges as it took command of all national forces in a very short space of time. In particular it describes the difficulty of targeting in poor weather, the lack of surveillance capabilities, the absence of accurate and timely intelligence, and how Gaddafi’s forces adapted to the threat posed by NATO’s air and maritime forces. It offers insights into the complexities of conducting maritime embargo operations with competing priorities to grapple with dual use cargo, delivery of humanitarian aid (sometimes accompanied by weapons, explosives and associated materiel) and the preservation of life (SOLAS), principally refugees escaping Libya in small boats. Public expectation indicated a rapid end to combat operations and not long after the operation started, talk of a stalemate emerged. A number of peace initiatives were pursued, all ending in failure and merely confirming Gaddafi’s intention to retain power and avoid any notion of a ceasefire or capitulation.

It is widely acknowledged that knowledge management (KM) strategy is a desired precursor to developing specific KM initiatives. Strategy development is often difficult due a variety of influences and constraints. Using KM influences as a foundation, this case study describes issues involved in developing a KM strategy for the Air Force Material Command, including issues to be considered for future strategy development such as leadership support and understanding, conflicts with IT organizations, funding, technology usage and configuration, and outsourcing.

Abstract:
The United States Air Force (USAF) is continually looking for ways to improve test and evaluation techniques to ensure systems meet military requirements. Since 1997, Air Combat Command (ACC) has been successfully using Design of Experiments (DOE) to construct and analyze operational test efforts. This paper highlights recent Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC) efforts to pursue statistically defensible test techniques to aid developmental test efforts. Defensible testing is a statistical approach which encompasses DOE but also emphasizes the need for better test planning by insisting on understanding the system under test, by requiring clear and achievable test objectives, by ensuring system performance is measurable, and by requiring that instrumentation accuracy and uncertainty are well understood and by estimating risk in test planning and evaluations which sometimes require confidence and power calculations. This paper highlights the Air Force Flight Test Center’s (AFFTC) first steps to improve aircraft propulsion system developmental test and evaluation (T&E) through the implementation of statistically defensible test techniques. Specifically, this paper provides insight into test accuracy. Engineers typically misuse terminology to specify test accuracy (error, precision, uncertainty, confidence intervals, etc…). This paper will present a case study in which the engineer specifies test accuracy requirements in terms of margin of error using 95-percent confidence intervals (CI’s). However, statisticians recommend using “Statistical Power” to ensure desired accuracy is achieved. Which is best to achieve test goals (CI’s or Power)? This paper will provide case study based on results from a recent aircraft engine inlet upgrade and provide a comparison between margin of error (confidence intervals) and statistical power results. A case will be made that statistical power is more mathematically rigorous than typical margin of error approaches and should be used to ensure test accuracy requirements are met.
