Aprašymas

USAF Manpower Trends, 1960-1963, is an account of Air Force efforts to adjust to requirements for a high quality technical and professional force and to the ever-growing demands from the Administration and Congress for greater economy in the use of manpower. Continuing technological developments and changes in national military strategy dictated the recruiting and holding of better trained people, shifts in personnel assignments, and modifications in the mission of many Air Force units. Perhaps most immediatelysignificant were preparations to meet the Berlin and Cuban crises of 1961 and 1962 and to counter the Communist threat to wage "wars of national liberation." The author has approached the various subjects discussed in this study from the viewpoint of the highest echelons of the Air Force--Headquarters USAF and the Office of the Secretary--attempting to explain how they met new problems and conditions, particularly how they adjusted to the demands of the Administration and Congress.
