Squadron

So What’s Next? So what’s next?? Everyone has done an outstanding job of bringing 20 new members into our squadron this year. But we have fallen short on member retention. We all must realize that it is just as important to have current members renew their membership as it is to have new members join. I understand things happen; health issues; financial issues; family issues. These are all unavoidable circumstances. But what about those that don’t renew for other reasons? As your newly appointed

because he wants to fight for England and because he likes flying. When trying to find his squadron, he crashes, but after his recovery, he still chooses to return to his squadron because he doesn’t know what dangers lie ahead of him. When he realizes that he had no experience fighting, his squadron is in a bad situation, and they will all probably die, he is not afraid. He knows he can’t leave his squadron, so he doesn’t have any other choice but to do his best in following orders. He listens to

The Tuskegee Airman For my term paper I chose the Tuskegee Airman. They will alway be the most influential air squadron during WWII. I think this because there where a lot racist people that did not want them to succeed, but they did more than just succeed. They became the first black Air Force pilots. It all started when President Roosevelt arranged a meeting in September 1940 with three African-American leaders and members of the Army and Navy. During the meeting

Operation Restoring Right (Tal Afar, Iraq) Entering into OIF II 2004, the reduction of coalition forces in Tal Afar, Iraq was slim to non-existing. These conditions allowed for terrorists/insurgents to return and seize this key piece of terrain located near the Syrian border. By spring of 2005, Tal Afar was commonly referred to as "al-Qaida’s town due to the stronghold insurgents had on the city. In April 2005, the 3d Armored Cavalry Regiment (3rd ACR) out of Fort Carson, Co would have a change

experience that others have not acquired. With the roll of Unit Scheduler I will be bringing new Airmen to McConnell AFB. My knowledge will allow them to broaden their view of our career field, which will lead to better rounded members in our squadron. This may lead new Airmen to strive to work towards something and help them avoid becoming

For the purpose of this study, I examined an old film ‘Twelve O’clock High’ and observed the management performance of the two main characters, Colonel Keith Davenport and General Frank Savage. At the beginning of the film, the squadron is suffering from bad luck, low morale and high casualties. In light of continued budget cuts and fewer forces to conduct deployment missions, Davenport believes higher headquarters are giving him impossible missions to attain.

Edward Vernon Rickenbacker, more commonly known as “Eddie”, was the third of eight children, born to William and Elizabeth Rickenbacker in Columbus, Ohio on October 8, 1890. Just as most adolescent boys, he went through a defiant stage. As a child, he was quite the delinquent, for he began smoking at the age of 5 and often spent time with a group of ornery kids called the “Horsehead Gang.” He was quickly whipped into shape by his father, however, who tragically died at a construction site in 1904
