Air Education and Training Command has activated a dedicated C-130 Hercules training unit—the 714th Training Squadron—at Little Rock AFB, Ark. The new unit received its first commander, Lt. Col. Thomas Anderson, last week and will comprise 42 military and civilian personnel who will provide all student support for the more than 1,800 US and allied personnel attending C-130 at Little Rock each year.
The Pentagon needs a Digital Command and a Digital Warfare Corps, along with other changes, to take advantage of critical new technologies, according to a think tank founded by former Google CEO and Chairman Eric Schmidt.
