If the law regarding homosexuals serving in the military is changed, “there is no doubt in my mind the Air Force will implement it professionally,” Chief of Staff Gen. Norton Schwartz said Wednesday afternoon at the Four-Star Forum during AFA’s Air & Space Conference in Washington, D.C. The Air Force will figure out rules governing everything from billeting to “PDAs” [personal displays of affection], but Schwartz said there is “one bottom line: The standards of conduct do not change.”
The Air Force’s B-52 bomber may soon be able to carry up to 20 stealthy long-range anti-ship missiles to strike moving targets at sea, a key capability in a potential fight with China.
