Navy Capt. Curt Goldacker, commander of Training Air Wing One at NAS Meridian, Miss., wants to join forces with the Air Force at Columbus AFB, Miss., to train pilots. According to the Associated Press news service, Goldacker and Columbus officials are working on a dual training plan called the “Good Neighbor Project.” One thing they might do, he says, is exchange instructor pilots.
Air Force Chief of Staff nominee Gen. Kenneth S. Wilsbach said he'll give special attention to coordinating with the Navy on buys of new weapons.
