The Air Force has tapped Barksdale AFB, La., and McGuire AFB, N.J., to serve as test bases for an energy initiatives pilot program. According to a USAF release, the base’s geographic locations and facilities made them ideal candidates. The service plans to “find the very best energy practices and test them” at the two bases, then migrate the ones that work to the rest of the Air Force.
Lt. Gen. Stephen L. Davis, the Department of the Air Force’s top internal watchdog, has been nominated to lead Air Force Global Strike Command, which oversees the service’s bombers and intercontinental ballistic missiles.
