He became chief of staff for SAC Headquarters in March 1974. Lieutenant General Martin G. Colladay became the deputy chairman, Military Committee, North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Brussels. General John Charles Meyer (April 3, 1919 - December 2, 1975) was an American World War II flying ace, and later the commander-in-chief of the Strategic Air Command (SAC) and director of the Joint Strategic Target Planning Staff at Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska. SAC was the United States' major nuclear deterrent force with bombers, tankers and reconnaissance aircraft, and intercontinental ballistic missiles. The Joint Strategic Target Planning Staff coordinated the nation's nuclear war plans and developed the Single Integrated Operations Plan (SIOP). Strategic Air Command (SAC) was both a Department of Defense Specified Command and a United States Air Force (USAF) Major Command (MAJCOM), responsible for Cold War command and control of two of the three components of the U.S. military's strategic nuclear strike forces, the so-called "nuclear triad," with SAC having control of land-based strategic bomber aircraft and intercontinental ballistic missiles or ICBMs (the third leg of the triad being submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBM) of the U.S. Navy). SAC also operated all strategic reconnaissance aircraft, all strategic airborne command post aircraft, and all USAF aerial refueling aircraft, to include those in the Air Force Reserve (AFRES) and Air National Guard (ANG). SAC primarily consisted of the Second Air Force (2AF), Eighth Air Force (8AF) and the Fifteenth Air Force (15AF), while SAC headquarters (HQ SAC) included Directorates for Operations & Plans, Intelligence, Command & Control, Maintenance, Training, Communications, and Personnel.

Three-hole punched, stapled. Condition: Very good. Presumed First First printing thus. The format is approximately 8 inches by 10 inches. Three-hole punched, Staplebound. Various paginations (approximately 40 pages). Figures. Tables. This supersedes AFM 60-1/SAC Sup 1, 30 December 1970. This Supplement was intended to have its p…ages inserted into AFM 60-1 according to the page number. Thus it is unusual to find a complete supplement intact. The Air Force Manual AFM 60-1 concerned management of flying resources, explains requirements for qualifications, annual training, evaluating of aircrews in primary and support flying, and crew rest and flight duty limitations. It also prescribes publications to be used in supervision of flying training and qualification. Waiver authority and rules for attachment of personnel for flying, were also included. It applied to all flying personnel. The purpose was to provide guidance and outline Air Force policy to all Air force personnel for use in administering flight management training and evaluation programs. This reflects the state-of-knowledge, the state-of-practice, the state-of-the-art, and the standards of doctrine and training at the period of the end of the Vietnam War. This Supplement to the manual addressed to the introductory section, section, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, A1, A2 and A3. In most cases the changes were half a page or less.

Contact seller5-star sellerPamphlet, staple-bound. Condition: Good. Presumed First printing thus. Various paginations (20 pages). Small scuff on front cover. Text is in a two column format. This supersedes SACP 205-7, 24 January 1972. This pamphlet is the SAC CSEP and is designed for self-study in Communications Security (COMSEC). All military and civilia…n personnel are to be administered this program in accordance with AFR 205-7/SAC Sup 1. This pamphlet is to be reused as long as serviceable. One of the fundamental requirements for the success of any military operation is surprise. Those involved with the planning or conduct of an operation expend considerable time and effort to insure that the enemy does not know when, where, or how an operation will take place. The Strategic Air Command Communications Security Education Program is designed to provide exposure to Communications Security principles to a broad cross section of SAC personnel. This pamphlet is intended to provide a basic understanding and appreciation for COMSEC and meets the broad objectives of the USAF COMSEC Education Program. The objective of the SAC CSEP is to educate all SAC personnel in the COMSEC threat to unsecure communications and proper procedures to prevent revealing classified information or information of possible intelligence value to unauthorized personnel. This reflects the state-of-knowledge, the state-of-practice, the state-of-the-art, and the standards of doctrine and training during the period at the end of the Vietnam War. This pamphlet addresses CSEP Objectives, Official Information, SAC Communications, The Telephone, Telephone Security Risk, Communications Security (COMSEC), Daily Operations, and Operations Plans. There is also information on the Mechanics of COMSEC and the Control of Compromising Emanations [TEMPEST}, and Audio Countermeasures.

Contact seller5-star sellerCondition: Good. Format is approximately 10.5 inches by 8 inches. Three hole punched. 1 single sheet, printed on one side. Diagrams and text in four quadrants. Middle hole is in the middle of the word Hydraulic. At the bottom edge is the following printed notation: T-188 1 Mar 1955 RB-52B 52-8710 2G15. This material was produced… before the Strategic Air Command (SAC) started taking delivery of the aircraft in June 1955. SAC was both a Department of Defense (DoD) Specified Command and a USAF Major Command, responsible for Cold War command and control of two of the three components of the U.S. military's strategic nuclear strike forces, the land-based strategic bomber aircraft and intercontinental ballistic missiles. This sheet is believed to have been produced by the Strategic Air Command, but could be a Boeing produced document. It is extremely rare for any of such technical material associated with a new aircraft to have survived--but the B-52 itself is still flying (albeit with many system changes having occurred). The top half of the sheet shows the Front Landing Gear Retraction with Hydraulic System No. 1 on the left side and Hydraulic System No. e on the right side. The bottom half shows the Rear Landing Gear Retractions with Hydraulic System No. 3 on the left side and Hydraulic System No. 4 on the right. there are depictions of main gear actuator, normal 4-way valve, Emergency 4-way valve, pressure relief valve, direction to aerial refueling, direction to bomb doors, brake lockout, direction to crosswind trim, and direction to steering. Valuable for content and as a display item. The RB-52B, though also usable as a normal bomber, was designed as a reconnaissance variant of the B-52B. In its reconnaissance role, a large Module/Reconnaissance Capsule was designed and procured which could be loaded into the bomb bay, completely filling the space. This pressurized Module included provisions for two additional crew members and would equip the RB-52B for photo reconnaissance, electronic intelligence gathering, weather data gathering or general observations. Without the reconnaissance pod in the bomb bay, the RB-52B was essentially the same as the standard B-52B and could perform the same bombing missions. A total of 50 B models were ordered with 27 being built as RB-52 dual role aircraft and the other 23 as single role bombers. There was disagreement within the USAF general staff over whether the B-52 should be primarily a bomber or a reconnaissance plane. The order for 13 B-52As was split into an order for only three A models and the other 10 for B-52Bs. The contract for the 10 B models was amended to include seven more aircraft and later changed to an RB-52B order. The Strategic Air Command and its commander, Gen. Curtis LeMay, wanted the B-52 as a bomber and fought against the reconnaissance variant. Although the reconnaissance version was built in slightly greater numbers than the bomber, the fact that the RB-52B could easily and quickly be converted for bombing missions satisfied SAC when they started taking delivery of the aircraft in June 1955. The B-52B and RB-52Bs were the first versions in the B-52 series to actually go into operational service. The 93rd Bomb Wing at Castle Air Force Base, Calif., was the first unit to get the B model and used them initially for transition crew training. Other wings receiving B models included the 95th, 99th and 22nd. The B model was retired from operational service in the mid-1960s, but one NB-52B (S/N 52-0008) was modified for use as a carrier aircraft (mothership) for the X-15 and Lifting Body flight research programs. This aircraft is still in use at the NASA Dryden Flight Research Center at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif. Single sheet, printed on one side Presumed First Edition, First printing thus.
