The Air Force wants to have 85 percent of personnel transactions by airmen conducted via the Web—no more treks to the local personnel office. To help enable this wonderful new world, the Air Force plans to reorganize base personnel functions under an initiative called PSD, or Personnel Services Delivery. McConnell AFB, Kan., will be testing PSD for about six months. What’s it all about? For starters, some squadrons will become flights; family support centers will become airmen and family readiness flights; and force development flights will comprise career assistance advisors, PME and other education, and first-term airman centers.
On Oct. 22, the Air Force Association's Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies will host a Nuclear Deterrence Forum featuring Henry Sokolski, executive director of the Nonproliferation Policy Education Center. The think tank will post event video on its website and YouTube page after the live event. Register here.
