Poetry Collaboration by A.A. Knight and Joseph Lucas on their
experiences and journeys though the West Coast.
During the last few years, the United States Air Force has been
involved in an unparalleled number of peacetime contingency
operations. Air National Guard (ANG) tanker and airlift assets have
been heavily engaged in these operations. However, the authors of
this study point out that the same level of activity is not found
in the ANG fighter force even though many of these units have
demonstrated a willingness to participate. Lieutenant Colonels
Lucas and Johnson argue that US reliance on the Air National Guard
will increase as declining defense budgets, a shrinking active
fighter force, and a vigorous National Security Strategy of
Engagement and Enlargement characterize the future. As a result,
the authors contend that it is imperative to explore new options
for increasing the availability of the Guard fighter force for
peacetime contingency use. Air National Guard Fighters in the Total
Force examines current "work arounds" used to increase guard
fighter availability and then explores a method to provide a
long-term solution. The study presents and analyzes the pros and
cons of three possible options: (1) increasing active duty manning
in all Guard fighter units, (2) increasing active duty manning in
only a few select Guard fighter units, and (3) moving most, if not
all, of the fighters out of the Guard and into the active duty
force. If current trends play out, the US military will benefit
from having thought about, discussed, and debated this problem. In
their insightful study, Lieutenant Colonels Lucas and Johnson
provide a fresh approach to finding a solution.
