Kansas State University has named its military science building after retired Air Force Gen. Richard Myers, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs. Myers, who graduated from KSU in 1965 and earned his commission through Air Force ROTC, now serves at the university under a part-time appointment as a professor of military history and leadership. Among dignitaries at the naming ceremony was Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, who said Myers is “an outstanding officer, and he is a consummate gentleman, and that is a nice combination.”
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.
