Air Combat Command goes ‘back to the future’ to re-learn large-scale deployments
By: Stephen Losey  

Going into his third year as the head of Air Combat Command, Gen. Mike Holmes is continuing to focus on how to reshape his command to prepare for a possible “great power” conflict.

A big part of that will include changing how ACC’s wings deploy airmen overseas, Holmes said Aug. 8.

For about the past decade and a half, wings have deployed smaller teams of airmen, mostly to the Middle East, in predictable rotations to replace airmen who are coming home.
