SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Purpose of
Meeting: This meeting is being held
under the provisions of the Federal
Advisory Committee Act (FACA) of
1972 (5 U.S.C., Appendix, as amended),
the Government in the Sunshine Act of
1976 (5 U.S.C. 552b, as amended), and
41 CFR 102–3.150. This meeting is the
third in a series of three meetings held
for the Commissioners to consider
information and data from a variety of
sources that will be presented and
aggregated by employing several data,
analytic and decision support tools that
contain classified information.
Agenda: The agenda items are:
—The role of airpower in the postAfghanistan national security
situations likely to be encountered by
the Air Force capabilities and Airmen
and the implications for the structure
of the Air Force. This discussion will
be organized into three categories.

Dr. Todd Bridges, USACE–ERDC–EL, Vicksburg, MS.
Dr. Andrea Leeson, Environmental Restoration Program Manager.
Dr. Birthe Kjellerup, Goucher College, Baltimore, MD.
The ‘‘Away Game,’’ will involve
emerging demands on Air Force
capabilities such as: Intelligence,
Surveillance and reconnaissance,
Remotely Piloted Aircraft, Space,
Cyber, Special Operations, and
Building Partnership Capacity.
Commissioners will also explore the
implications of rising demands and
expectations for the ‘‘Home Game’’ in
missions such as Homeland Defense,
Homeland Security, and Defense
Support to Civil Agencies. This will
include implications for the structure
of the Air Force from the growing
threat of the ‘‘Away Game’’ involving
simultaneous attacks on the
Homeland. The third area of
discussion will be on the continuing
growth of demand on traditional Air
Force core functions including: Air
Superiority, Air Mobility, Global
Precision Attack, Nuclear Deterrence
Operations, Command and Control,
Personnel Recovery, Agile Combat
Support, Training and Education, and
other specific mission sets such as
security forces, civil engineering and
science and technology.
—Projections and assumptions about
future resource levels that will be
available to organize, train and equip
the Air Force. This will include
assumptions about how the Budget
Control Act and Sequestration
legislation will affect Total
Obligational Authority and associated
planning, programming and budgeting
flexibility. Commissioners will also
consider the impact of strategic
choices on Air Force capabilities and
force structure options derived from
the selection of national priorities
among modernization, technology,
recapitalization, readiness, capacity
and force structure. In this discussion
Commissioners will consider the
various approaches to how to
