0207.  1,712 selected for lieutenant colonel: 33 for captain

RANDOLPH AIR FORCE BASE, Texas (AFPN) -- Board officials selected 1,712
officers for promotion to lieutenant colonel.  Those selected are line
officers, and from the judge advocate general, chaplain, nurse corps and
biomedical sciences corps career fields.  A judge advocate general board
also selected 33 first lieutenants for promotion to captain.

Both lists will be posted on the Air Force Personnel Center's Web site at
http://www.afpc.randolph.af.mil by Feb. 9.

The promotion boards convened here in November, and board members considered
8,965 majors for promotion.

The officer promotion board included people retained in the Air Force under
Stop-Loss.  By policy, those held under Stop-Loss compete with all other
officers who are eligible for promotion.

The overall effect of Stop Loss on this board was to increase the total
number of people the board could select for promotion by two.  The maximum
number any board can select for promotion is decided by applying a
predetermined percentage to the total number eligible in the primary
promotion zone for a given board.

The results of the board are as follows:

Selection statistics in-the-promotion zone for lieutenant colonel:
-- Line: 1304 officers selected from 1,989 considered for a 65.6-percent
select rate;
-- Judge advocate general: 41 officers selected from 62 considered for a
66.1-percent select rate;
-- Chaplain: 12 officers selected from 21 considered for a 57.1-percent
select rate;
-- Nurse corps: 75 officers selected from 155 considered for a 48.4-percent
select rate; and
-- Biomedical sciences corps: 57 officers selected from 103 considered for a
55.3-percent select rate.

Selection statistics above-the-promotion zone for lieutenant colonel:
-- Line: 39 officers selected from 2,143 considered for a 1.8-percent select
rate;
-- Judge advocate general: Five officers selected from 50 considered for a
10-percent select rate;
-- Chaplain: One officer selected from 25 considered for a 4.0-percent
select rate;
-- Nurse corps: Nine officers selected from 104 considered for an
8.7-percent select rate; and
-- Biomedical sciences corps: Four officers selected from 65 considered for
a 6.2-percent select rate.

Selection statistics below-the-promotion zone lieutenant colonel:
-- Line: 149 officers selected from 3,577 considered for a 4.2-percent
select rate;
-- Judge advocate general: One officer selected from 111 considered for a
0.9-percent select rate;
-- Chaplain: No officers considered;
-- Nurse corps: Nine officers selected from 383 considered for a 2.3-percent
select rate; and
-- Biomedical sciences corps: Six officers selected from 177 considered for
a 3.4-percent select rate.

0212.  Finch:  Air Force strength depends upon quality of life

by Tech. Sgt. Scott Elliott
Air Force Print News

WASHINGTON -- Improving the quality of life of servicemembers is critical to
mission success of America's armed forces.

That message, delivered Feb. 6 by Chief Master Sgt. of the Air Force Jim
Finch to a House Appropriations Subcommittee on Military Construction was
the central theme of a day of testimony by the senior enlisted people from
each of the armed forces.

Finch joined enlisted people from the Army, Navy and Marine Corps to testify
before a group that included Democratic Congressmen Dave Hobson of Ohio and
John Olver of Massachusetts.

"Continued strength of America's Air Force will depend upon the ability to
recruit and retain quality people," Finch testified.

Though recruiting goals were surpassed both last fiscal year and in the
first quarter of fiscal 2002, Finch said he is concerned about keeping
experienced people in the service.

"We're still struggling with retention in some areas," he said.

"Prior to implementing Stop-Loss, our first-term retention rates had
stabilized, but we continued to fall short on our second-term and career
airmen retention goals," he said.  "These people represent our experience
base -- the skilled technicians, trainers and deployers who are vital to
meeting mission requirements.  While Stop-Loss has temporarily helped us
meet current mission requirements, retention is still a major concern and
it's essential we continue to improve the standard of living for our airmen
and their families."

About 234,000 active-duty airmen, roughly 84 percent of the enlisted force,
will make a re-enlistment decision in the next five years, Finch said.

"The potential exists that many of these people will migrate to the civilian
sector for a more stable environment," he said.

Finch testified about several quality-of-life issues vital to retention,
including base infrastructure maintenance, housing and child-care.

"The Air Force is committed to ensuring our members and families have a
high-quality living and working environment," he said.  "The quality of our
infrastructure sends a direct signal to our men and women regarding the
value we place on their service.

"Unfortunately, in the past we've had to defer investment in our
infrastructure to pay for near-term readiness priorities," he said.  "The
result has been a deterioration of facilities.

"I believe there's a direct correlation between safe, affordable housing and
being able recruit, motivate and retain a top-quality professional force,"
he said.

"We continue to strive to meet our family housing master plan," he said.
"With the increased funding requested for fiscal 2003, the Air Force is on
track to meet its 2010 goal (to revitalize inadequate housing units)."

The Air Force is pursuing a balance of traditional military construction
funds and privatization initiatives to meet housing requirements, Finch
said.  The service anticipates awarding privatization project at eight
locations in the next year.

"I've visited privatization projects, and the feedback I've received has
been positive," he said.

Servicemembers like the modern kitchens, garages, community centers and
swimming pools, Finch said.

Finch then turned his attention to the housing needs of single junior
airmen.

"The Air Force dormitory master plan outlines how we will meet the goal of
providing single airmen (E-1 through E-4) a private room on base and replace
the worst dorms by 2009," he said.

"Dormitories are more than just a place to house single airmen," Finch said
to the subcommittee members.  "Dormitory life helps transition our most
junior members from a very structured environment of basic training and
technical school to life in the operational Air Force."

Regarding transitory airmen and their families, Finch addressed the quality
of facilities supporting people on temporary duty and
permanent-change-of-station status.

"Not only will better quarters improve our members' quality of life, but
they provide significant savings and improve force protection," he said.

The service's new visiting quarters will provide a "one-size-fits-all" room
for all grades of transient personnel.  Temporary lodging facilities have
significantly increased the living space for families, Finch said.

"Affordable child-care is also a significant concern among Air Force
families," he said.  "We meet less than 65 percent of our child-care needs.
This has placed a difficult strain on our single parents and dual-career
families.

"While we are increasing the number of child-care spaces by affiliating
off-base family child-care homes and opening new child development centers,
we still require 15,000 more spaces to meet the (Department of Defense)
goal," he said.

"Air Force members and their families continue to work hard and dedicate
themselves to the service of America," Finch said.  "Therefore, we believe
those serving... deserve a standard of living at least equal to the
Americans they support and defend."



0210.  AFAS education grant deadline approaching

by Staff Sgt. Amy Parr
Air Force Print News

WASHINGTON -- Going to college is something that not everyone can afford on
their own. Realizing this, Air Force Aid Society officials established an
education grant program to help Air Force families fulfill their education
goals.

But to qualify, interested students must first apply. And, with the March 15
deadline fast approaching for eligible children and stateside spouses, time
is running out, officials said.

The Gen. Henry H. Arnold Education Grant Program is open to children of
active duty, Title 10 Active Guard Reserves, Title 32 AGR performing
full-time active duty and retirees from both active duty and the reserves.
It is also open to children of deceased members.

Spouses of active duty and Title 10 AGR, and surviving spouses of Air Force
people who died while on active duty or in a retired status, are also
eligible candidates. To qualify, spouses must reside and attend college in
the continental United States. Spouses residing overseas, including Alaska
and Hawaii, have access to a separate AFAS grant program, the Gen. George S.
Brown Spouse Tuition Assistance Program, and should contact their local AFAS
or education center for information.

Applicants for the $1,500 Arnold grants must attend a post-secondary
institution approved by the U.S. Department of Education for participation
in financial aid programs and maintain a 2.0 grade point average on a 4.0
scale.

"The application process consists of two phases," said Dory Larkin, AFAS
education assistance department manager. "First, the student and sponsoring
member must complete and submit a preliminary application to AFAS
headquarters for screening and certification of basic eligibility."

This must be received by AFAS by March 15.

"The second phase involves completing and submitting a family financial data
form and GPA verification to the society's contracted, independent grant
administrator, (ACT Recognition Program Services, Iowa City, Iowa)," she
said. "The financial information is used to establish an applicant's need,
which is heavily based on the cost of attendance cost at their chosen
school."

Once this information is received, applicants are ranked by ACT according to
their need level. Larkin said children of active duty only compete against
other children of active duty, and spouses of active duty only against other
active-duty spouses and so on.

Financial and GPA information must be received by ACT by April 15. With the
high selection rates, it is well worth someone's time to apply, Larkin said.
Nearly 9,000 applications are accepted each year, with a selection rate that
has been better than 50 percent.

Contact AFAS headquarters at (800) 429-9475 or DSN 327-3072, or visit its
Web site at www.afas.org for information and application procedures on this
and other AFAS programs.



0204.  Raptor gets green light on refueling capability

EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. (AFPN) -- The F-22 Combined Test Force here
expanded the Raptor's operational capability by certifying the aircraft for
"hot-pit" refueling operations recently.

After nearly five months of research, training and demonstrations,
certification will allow the F-22 to be refueled on the ground while the
engines are operating.

The new certification is a first for the F-22 program and expands the
current operational capability of the platform, said 1st Lt. Roy Recker,
chief of F-22 logistics test and evaluation.

Most often, hot-pit refueling is done on a parking pad, adjacent to the
aircraft runways, Recker said.  After hot refueling, the F-22 can return to
the skies, to continue expanding the flight and avionics envelope.

Hot refueling is not a new concept, Recker said.

"Many fighter units employ hot refueling operations in conjunction with
rearming and reloading ordnance, also known as an integrated combat turn,"
he said.  "Together, integrated combat turns and hot refueling get the
airplane back in the air in minimum time."

The Raptor was initially scheduled for integrated combat turn certification
after April 2003, during the dedicated initial operational test and
evaluation phase of testing.  However, hot-pit refueling tests have been
brought forward in the test schedule as an initiative to add flexibility in
test execution when tanker support may not be available, Recker said.

"When tankers are down for maintenance or sometimes not available because of
real-world operational requirements, hot-pit refueling allows for multiple
sorties per test mission," Recker said.  "Although test missions with
airborne tanker support are more efficient, hot-pit refueling between
several sorties will go a long way towards providing the needed flight hours
per test mission."

For the F-22 test force, earning the hot-pit refueling certification meant
meeting three phases of requirements.  In the first phase, the physical
location of the hot refueling operation is certified to ensure it meets
ground safety and fire department requirements, Recker said.

The second phase certifies that the maintenance, fire department and fuels
people involved in the operation have been properly and safely trained. They
must attend academic classes, pass written tests and do multiple "dry run"
refueling scenarios, Recker said.

The third and final phase certifies the aircraft is in the proper
configuration to be refueled while the engines are running.

Aircraft that operate in hot-pit refueling areas also undergo a brief, but
thorough safety check upon landing to ensure the aircraft is ready to be
refueled and can return to the air, Recker said.

"The aircraft and operator benefit from two different crews giving the plane
these quick inspections before, during and after hot refueling operations,"
Recker said.



0208.  Flight increases survival odds of Pacific aircrews

by Master Sgt. Val Gempis
Air Force Print News

YOKOTA AIR BASE, Japan -- The 36th Airlift Squadron here serves as the
airlift "hub" of the Pacific Region, and its fleet of 13 C-130 Hercules
aircraft are constantly on the go.  Squadron people support various
humanitarian, joint-exercise and real-world operations in an area covering
about 3 million square miles of water, dense jungles, snow-capped mountains
and barren deserts.

Although the risks of flying over most of these areas are minimal, the
14-person life support flight here ensures that aircrews assigned or
in-transit to the base are well prepared, trained and properly equipped just
in case unplanned ditching or landing occurs in unfriendly and inhospitable
environments.

Staff Sgt Darnell Burton, an aircrew life support technician, teaches
pilots, navigators, flight engineers and loadmasters the importance of
knowing their survival gear.  He stresses "locate it, identify it and
operate it" during his emergency egress classes.

"If you don't know how to use your radio and signaling devices, the chances
of your being found increasingly decrease," he said.  "And raising the odds
of the aircrew surviving is one of the primary goals of these [life support
specialists]."

Last year the flight supported hundreds of local and temporary-duty crews
flying the Pacific route.  Their missions ranged from minor repairs to
extensive equipment overhauls while maintaining a wide variety of life
support gear for every type of aircraft in the Air Force inventory.

"We have a very high ops tempo here," said Master Sgt Richard Bruck, flight
chief.  "In life support, training never stops.  You're either training
someone or being trained to stay current on the latest equipment."

Bruck keeps the life support slogan, "Your life is our business,"
prominently displayed on his wall.  The slogan says exactly how serious
their mission is.

Typically, life support duties include inspecting, testing, maintaining, and
repairing parachutes, survival vests, helmets, oxygen masks, life rafts and
night-vision equipment to ensure that they are in serviceable condition.
Some of the equipment is issued to aircrews and some is pre-positioned on an
aircraft.

Although most of these items are not used daily, Bruck said it is vital
those items are thoroughly inspected.  Life support specialists take time to
check and double-check every piece of equipment making sure that each is in
top shape.  There are no second chances with life support equipment.

"Someone's life depends on it," Bruck said.



0205.  Reservists make historic landing in Antarctica

CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand (AFPN) -- When an Air Force Reserve Command C-141
Starlifter cargo plane touched down in Antartica recently, it was not only
the command's first Operation Deep Freeze mission of 2002, but also a chance
to test a new approach to landing on Pegasus, a hard ice runway near McMurdo
Station.

Operation Deep Freeze is joint-military operation of the U.S. Armed Forces
and the New Zealand Defence Forces, providing logistic support for the U.S.
National Science Foundation's Antarctic Program.

A Reserve aircrew from the 4th Air Force and 452nd Air Mobility Wing both at
March Air Reserve Base, Calif., delivered 102 passengers from a variety of
nations, along with 20,500 pounds of cargo from here for the Antarctic
program.

"When we landed, it was about 10:30 at night, but it was more like an
afternoon," said Maj. Mike Hames, the pilot who was at the controls for the
landing.  "The temperature, for Antarctica, was a balmy 14 degrees, clear
skies, and just a lot of sunshine.  It was just like the middle of the
afternoon."

Reserve and active-duty crews have been landing on the all-ice runway for
several years, said Lt. Col. Kelly Curtis, overall mission commander from
the 452nd AMW.

"What's new about this one is the fact that they put about 6 inches of dry
snow and super compacted it so it becomes bonded with the ice," he said.
"This provides a 2- to 3-inch insulation cover for the ice when the sun
angle gets significant so they don't have any melting that will degrade the
continuity of the ice surface to land on."

C-141s and other large aircraft have restrictions on how much loose snow and
ice can be on a runway because flying snow can cause structural damage,
tearing off components and ripping holes in the aircraft's skin, Curtis
said.

"There was a concern about the integrity -- whether the compressed,
compacted snow would hold up," he said.  "The biggest issue we had a concern
with is how that would impact potential damage to an airplane."

But everything seemed to go very well on the first mission, Curtis said.

"The first crew that went in had nothing but good things to say about the
runway," he said. "They said it was actually a smoother, better surface to
operate on, and the braking was good, so everyone was thrilled with the
test."

Since the next sunset in Antarctica is weeks away, the aircrew members had
unlimited visibility as they headed for the first 2002 Deep Freeze mission.
Once they touched down, they said the feel of the runway did not seem too
much different to them than their California-based runway some 6,000 miles
away.

"Coming in for the landing, we could identify the runway probably 15 miles
out," said Capt. Neil Kishi, the aircraft commander on the first mission.
"The actual landing itself was just like a normal landing -- nothing
special, just normal.  It felt the same.  There was not a lot of difference
that you could feel.  It was actually smoother than the ice runway that they
use during the main season."

This was Kishi's fifth landing in Antarctica; for Hames, his first.

"The landing went pretty well just because it was good weather down there,"
Hames said.  "But the lack of contrast in the white and the width of the
runway made it a little bit of a challenge as far as judging exactly where
you were in the flare of the airplane on the ground.  But it worked out all
right.  We came down; we touched down pretty nicely.

"During the rollout, about the only thing that we noticed that was pretty
different was the little bit of braking action," Hames said.  "The aircraft
has the anti-skid on it.  If you are familiar with a vehicle with anti-skid,
the wheels, if they lock up, they release, then they start slowing down
again.  You could kind of feel that a little bit but nothing really
significant or really bad."

Landing on the ice is becoming old hat for one of the aircraft's flight
engineers, Senior Master Sgt. Rick Binkley from 4th Air Force.  Making his
66th landing on the frozen continent, his face is recognized by most support
ground crews.

But waiting for him at Pegasus was a very familiar face -- his 23-year-old
son Rick Jr., who works for Raytheon in Antarctica.

"When we landed and got off the airplane, I saw my son right away," Binkley
said.  "He was walking across the ramp.  It was really great to see him.  We
had a good conversation and a good visit."

On the return flight, the March reservists carried 89 passengers and 20,900
pounds of cargo.  This mission was just the first of 13 scheduled missions
into and out of Pegasus during a 30-day window.

About 70 reservists from March are here in support of Operation Deep Freeze.

0206.  Lieutenant mentors nation's top teens

by Tech. Sgt. Mona Ferrell
Air Force Pentagon Communications Agency Public Affairs

WASHINGTON (AFPN) -- An officer helped mentor more than 160 of the nation's
brightest teen-agers recently, giving them a behind-the-scenes look at the
federal government in action.

First Lt. Matthew Tomlinson, a plans and policies information systems
engineer with the Air Force Pentagon Communications Agency here, was a
volunteer instructor during a one-week educational session of the
Presidential Classroom's Global Business, e-Commerce and Public Policy
Program.  The program provides high school students a chance to observe the
American process for developing business policies.

Presidential Classroom is a civic organization which brings thousands of the
country's top high school students here for 15 one-week sessions each year,
giving them the rare opportunity to see the government's processes
firsthand, said Ginger King, Presidential Classroom dean and executive vice
president.

"Our hope is to give the students an insider's view on how Washington works,
while instilling an interest in civic responsibility," King said.  "During
the week the students are here, they get to do a variety of things while
learning about our government.

Students spend time on Capitol Hill, are taught through a series of seminars
by influential government speakers, get to speak one-on-one with their state
representative and learn how the American process for developing business
policies is affected by our economy, King said.

"But none of this could occur without the help of our volunteer
instructors," she said.

Volunteer instructors, pooled from throughout the government's civil service
and military sector, have been a vital part of Presidential Classroom's
educational process since its inception in 1968, King said.

"One of the reasons we prefer our instructors to have military and federal
backgrounds is to help put a face on the federal government," she said.
"Many of the students have a relatively narrow view of the government and
what our policy-makers do.  Having instructors from a variety of backgrounds
within our administration exposes them to the various opportunities and
fields in the public policy-making process."

Tomlinson's Air Force job is to monitor private companies that have business
contracts with the government.  He said he was eager to instruct and help
put the face and heart of the Air Force in the minds of the students.

"I like to volunteer, but one of the pitfalls of traditional volunteering,
in my opinion, is that you have very little impact on the people you're
helping due to time restraints," he said. "Basically, you're normally
volunteering as an external person in a set environment for a limited amount
of time.  So, when I saw an article about Presidential Classroom needing
volunteer instructors, it piqued my interest."

Upon further research, the weeklong concept of the program gave Tomlinson
hope that he would have more of an impact on the students and their
professional development, and he was right.

"When I met the students the first night, I think many of them had an
extremely limited view of the world," Tomlinson said.  "And, many of them
believed that everyone who put on an Air Force uniform flew airplanes.

"What I tried to do is convey to them that there's a lot to do in a company,
whether that company is a private business or a huge conglomerate like the
United States Air Force," he said.  "I think the information and instruction
provided during the course of the week, combined with the interaction that
naturally happens when you get a diverse group of students together, proved
to be a real eye-opening experience for most of the students."

While the structured learning process of the program was important to
Tomlinson, equally important was portraying an Air Force image the students
would remember and also relate to.

"As cliché as this sounds, these kids are the future leaders of America,"
Tomlinson said.  "It's my hope that this week has put a seed into their
minds that the military and the government work together.  This week should
have put a real face on American business and democracy.  And, indirectly
through my leadership and instruction, I hope to have attached a lasting
image to the United States Air Force.

"Regardless as to whether these students end up putting on the blue uniform
or not, the more educated they are about the Air Force, the more support we
will receive from government agencies, businesses and private citizens as
these students join the American workforce," he said.

And, it is this impression that seems to have stuck.

"Presidential Classroom and Lieutenant Tomlinson's guidance has given me a
lot more confidence in my leadership skills," said Wende Cooper, an
11th-grade student from Agoura, Calif.  "I'm in the nomination process for
getting into the Air Force Academy, and I'm even more sure that I want to go
to (the academy) now.  Presidential Classroom groups together some of the
best young business minds in America and allows us talk to one another --
it's been a great way to share my views while getting different inputs and
ideas.

"But even more than that, this course has taught me about myself, about
leadership and that I can make a difference," Cooper said.



0203.  Black general fulfilled his dreams

by 1st Lt. Virgil W. Magee
Air Force Space Command Public Affairs

PETERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Colo. (AFPN) -- The base here has been the center
of America's military space machine since the early 1950s. It was also the
place where the first black four-star general and commander in chief called
home.

Gen. Daniel "Chappie" James, former commander in chief of North American Air
Defense Command and Air Force Aerospace Defense Command, joined the Army Air
Force at a time when blacks were only allowed to work as laborers and cooks.

At his childhood home near Pensacola Naval Air Station, Fla., James often
dreamed of flying for the Navy, but at the time none of the military
branches allowed blacks to become pilots. He often told the story of when he
was a young man, a naval officer ordered him to move to the back of the bus
so he could sit down.

James later said in a speech at Morehouse College in Atlanta that he did as
he was told, but said he felt ashamed of himself and vowed to never let
anyone or anything stand in his way again.

After completing college at Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, he became an
instructor with the Army Air Corps Aviation Cadet Program. When the Army
considered training blacks as pilots, James resigned his civilian post and
entered the program as a student.

He later graduated first in his class and received a commission as a second
lieutenant.

He next completed fighter pilot combat training at Selfridge Field, Mich.,
and was assigned to various units in the United States for the next six
years.

While the Air Force was considered "integrated," black pilots were not
accepted socially or provided with equal opportunities or facilities.  James
became actively involved in several protests to provide equal treatment for
blacks in the military.

James' career spanned the beginning and end of an era. The era opened with
the establishment of the Army Air Force flying school for blacks at Tuskegee
-- a crack in the discrimination barrier, but not segregation.

It ended with his promotion to the highest military rank and high-level
assignments. It proved that no position in the armed forces or society is
closed to any person of outstanding ability and determination.  (Courtesy of

0211.  Ramstein airmen featured on Letterman show

RAMSTEIN AIR BASE, Germany (AFPN) -- Ten Air Force people here will share
the spotlight with David Letterman on his television show Feb. 8.  "Late
Show with David Letterman" crews traveled here recently to film the airmen
reading items for Letterman's "Top 10 List."

The people selected will give late-night audiences the "Top 10 cool things
about being in the Air Force."

Capt. Michelin Conerly, a flight nurse examiner with the 86th Aeromedical
Evacuation Squadron, was excited to be chosen from the base's various
organizations.

"It was an honor to be selected to represent my unit and the Air Force,"
said the nine-year military veteran.  "This opportunity gives everyone a
chance to see the diversity of people and careers in the Air Force."

First Lt. Nathan Miller from the 76th Airlift Squadron was also chosen.

"The Air Force gives you opportunities you wouldn't get in the civilian
sector -- training, travel and education," he said.  "The military is a
noble profession.  It's great working with a group of people that have the
same core values, who work toward the same goal -- peace."

Although there is danger involved in what military people do, "The
satisfaction and pride in serving our country outweighs the risks," Miller
said.

Featuring the men and women in "blue" and their role of protecting America
is the show's intent, said Jeremy Weiner, Letterman show writer and
coordinator.

"At a time when the military is so involved in defending America
domestically and abroad, we thought it was important to do something to
highlight them," he said. "The way we can do this effectively is featuring
the military on a show like ours."

Marines at Camp Lejeune, N.C., and soldiers in Afghanistan are scheduled to
read lists for late-night viewers in the future.
