The Graying of a Fleet: 'Tired Iron' Needs Total Force Boost
Military.com | 16 May 2017 | by General Carlton D. Everhart II
Gen. Carlton Everhart II is head of the Air Force's Air Mobility Command.
About every three minutes, airmen from the Air Force's Air Mobility Command launch a sortie to fly ammunition, fuel or troops somewhere around the globe.
Our airmen operate in 77 countries, 365 days a year. In the first half of 2017 alone, we refueled the F-35 on its first deployments, enabled stealth bombers to strike terrorist camps in Libya, and transported critical supplies to National Science Foundation facilities in Antarctica.
