The Airlift/Tanker Association Hall of Fame has honored retired Maj. Gen. James “Bagger” Baginski with a bronze bust in front of the 375th Airlift Wing headquarters building at Scott AFB, Ill. At an Oct. 2 ceremony, Gen. Duncan McNabb, head of Air Mobility Command, said everyone at AMC is “deeply indebted to the Bagger,” who “foresaw and shaped the future of air mobility and then made it happen.”
A new report from the Government Accountability Office calls for the Pentagon’s Chief Technology Officer to have budget certification authority over the military services’ research and development accounts—a move the services say would add a burdensome and unnecessary layer of bureaucracy.
