摘要

When Air Force Association Chairman of the Board Robert E. "Bob" Largent met with airmen at Pacific Air Forces bases in July, he garnered frontpage headlines for AFA at every stop. During Largent's two-week journey to Hickam, Andersen, Elmendorf, and Eielson Air Force Bases, he explained AFA's mission, addressed groups of airmen, and chatted with them individually to gather ideas on what the association can do for PACAF personnel. He also received command briefings and updates on Pacific region issues. At his first stop, Hickam AFB, Hawaii, the base newspaper ran an extensive interview with Largent, covering everything from USAF's role in the War on Terror to the high operations tempo of Hickam's airmen. "I met two folks last night who had just returned [from Southwest Asia] less than three weeks ago and they're leaving again in just a few months. And these are airmen from all specialties-housing, maintenance, logistics," he told the reporter. Hawaii Chapter members-led by Acting Chapter President Lance Bleak-ley and Nora Feuerstein-organized a joint services reception for Largent. Feuerstein pointed out that Hickam and Pearl Harbor could move toward consolidation of facilities and budgets under the Pentagon's proposed joint basing strategy, so an Air Force-Navy guest list seemed appropriate. Gen. Loyd S. Utterback, the 13th Air Force commander, and USAF Lt. Gen. Douglas M. Fraser, the US Pacific Command deputy, were among the guests, as well as Navy Capt. Richard Kitchens, who commands Naval Station Pearl Harbor, and Navy Capt. Donald D. Hodge, the chief of staff for Navy Region Hawaii.

Loyd S.Utterback)将军和美国太平洋司令部副司令道格拉斯·M·弗雷泽(Douglas M.Fraser)中将以及指挥海军上将珍珠港的海军上尉理查德·基奇斯(Richard Kitchens)和夏威夷海军地区参谋长Donald D. Hodge上尉。
