Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The US Air Force provides the preponderance of the world's most lethal, technologically superior airpower, yet does comparatively little to protect it when its most vulnerable on the ground. Although the Air Force concept of force projection requires deployment into hostile zones, it traditionally placed little emphasis on protecting its force, unlike its sister services and close NATO partner, the Royal Air Force. Plainly, the Air Force has yet to institutionalize force protection. Service leadership continues to wrestle with integrating force protection with the flying mission, historically reacting to security events vice protecting against them, and therefore repeating the lessons of history. Without a greater understanding of modern force protection roles and missions, Air Force leadership is unwittingly increasing the criminal and combat risk to American airpower.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Both items in fair condition, on lightly aged and creased paper. The second letter addressed by the secretary on the reverse, with four torn stamps and postmarks, to 'Mr. Lawrence Hodson | Bradbourne Hall | Ashbourne | Derbyshire'. The 'set of stations' referred to in the first letter is likely to have been based on those executed by Gill in stone in Westminster Cathedral, and completed in 1918. Letter One (3 November 1920): 1p., 12mo. After thanking Hodson for his letter, Gill informs him that 'Father Delaney [Father Bernard Delaney, OP] says he will certainly publish your article [in 'Blackfriars', the journal of the English Dominicans, of which he was editor] and I am very pleased.' Hodson's 'suggestion that a set of stations should be made in wood cuts is already in hand [last two words placed in quotation marks by Gill]'. Gill 'has seen the cuts' and thinks that 'something in the same manner would certainly be effective and might be very useful'. Gill is sending Hodson a copy of 'the little book that we brought out some years ago', and he will let him know 'as soon as the bigger ones materialise'. Letter Two (10 March 1921): 1p., landscape 12mo. He thanks Hodson for another letter, 'and for the note on "Dress" which I am sending on to the editor of "Blackfriars". I hope he will publish it, and am glad you approved of the article.' He continues: 'I will see that a print of the large woodcut of the first "Station" is sent to you.' He concludes by informing Hodson that he will be 'very pleased to see you when you can come to Ditchling'. While chairman of the brewers W. Butler & Co., Hodson had organised the Wolverhampton Art and Industrial Exhibition of 1902. A connoisseur of the arts, his collection of Pre-Raphaelite paintings and library of illuminated manuscripts were auctioned by Sotheby's in 1906.…
