A March 15 Daily Report entry incorrectly attributed March 8 House Armed Services Committee testimony to both Air Force Global Strike Command chief Gen. Robin Rand and Vice Chief of Staff Gen. Stephen Wilson. Rand did not testify at the hearing, but he did initiate the change in requirements to a minimum of 100 B-21s last spring. We have corrected the original entry.
The U.S. began extensive air and artillery strikes against Islamic State group targets in Syria on Dec. 19 in retaliation for the killing of three Americans on Dec. 13 by a gunman affiliated with ISIS, U.S. officials said.
