The new superintendent of the US Air Force Academy already has made some changes at the Colorado Springs, Colo., campus, including restoring “Recognition Week,” more popularly known as “hell week.” Now, Lt. Gen. John Regni wants to make more fairly wide ranging changes, such as instilling more military discipline into the school and recruiting more minorities. According to the Rocky Mountain News, one of the changes he will make is to require all cadets to rise upon reveille and to eat breakfast.
The rate of building B-21 bombers would speed up if the fiscal 2026 defense budget passes. But it remains unclear how much capacity would be added, and whether the Air Force would simply build the bombers faster, or buy more.
