The Air Force has released its new strategic plan, in which it delineates “scalable choices that are unlimited by distance or time and span the entire range from humanitarian assistance to nuclear strike.” The Air Force, it says, provides “persistent, lethal, overwhelming air, space, and cyberspace power massed and brought to bear anywhere, anytime.” The 32-page “Air Force Strategic Plan 2006-2008” outlines the service’s strategic choices, three priorities by which it will judge every choice, and its seven goals.
The Air Force has begun depriving new trainees of more sleep and will soon ramp up the stress level in Basic Military Training to better prepare Airmen for the increased strain of combat operations such as Epic Fury.
