As the Air Force charts its course into the twenty-first century, valuable insight is gained by examining the beginnings of that course--the initial vector that has steered air power from its birth at the beginning of this century and will now carry air and space power into the next. The United States Air Force is inseparably linked to many aviation pioneers and air power advocates. The wisdom and vision of these early airmen have steered the development of air power throughout this century.
Among those early visionaries, Brig. Gen. William "Billy" Mitchell was perhaps the most outspoken advocate of air power and an independent air force. Mitchell was not only a pioneer in military aviation, but an air power visionary. He was among the earliest to realize the value of air power and to see not only the profound changes it brought to his times, but its vast potential for the future. His wisdom is as fresh and relevant today as it was at the beginning of the century when he offered it. This collection of Mitchell’s thoughts on air power offered here should illuminate the vision offered by Global Engagement. Even though Mitchell set forth his thoughts nearly 80 years ago, the lineage can be seen between his vision and those principles that have guided our Air Force in the past, that guide our Air Force today, and that will guide the Air Force vision for the next century.
