摘要

Air Force Secretary James G. Roche announced his resignation Nov. 16. Roche said his plans called for him to depart Jan. 20 or sooner, depending on whether asuccessor was confirmed. Roche, who became SECAF on June 1,2001, had said he would depart from his post at the end of Bush's first term. Roche led the Air Force through a historic period of change, marked by the 9/11 attacks and wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Gen. John P. Jumper, Chief of Staff, said Roche had an "unrelenting resolve to adapt our force" and had "guaranteed America's Air Force remains the greatest in the world." The end of Roche's term was marked by controversies: the Air Force Academy sexual assault scandal; clashes with Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) over a proposed lease of new tanker aircraft; and former acquisition official Darleen Druyun's admission of illegally favoring Boeing for new contracts. Officials said that a key factor in Roche's decision was his belief that his departure would free up Air Force nominations that Congress had placed on hold.

Roche)于11月16日宣布辞职。罗切表示,他的计划要求他于1月20日或更早离任,这取决于前任是否得到确认。罗氏(Roche)于2001年6月1日成为SECAF成员,他曾表示,他将在布什第一任期结束时辞职。罗氏(Roche)带领空军经历了历史性的变革时期,以9/11阿富汗和伊拉克的袭击和战争为标志。参谋长约翰·P·跳线将军说,罗氏“坚定不移地调动我们的力量”,并“保证美国的空军仍然是世界上最大的。”罗氏(Roche)任期的结束引起争议:空军学院的性侵犯丑闻;与参议员约翰·麦凯恩(R-Ariz。)就拟议的新加油机租赁协议发生冲突;以及前收购官员达伦·德鲁云(Darleen Druyun)承认非法赞成波音获得新合同。官员们说,罗氏作出这一决定的关键因素是他相信罗氏的离职将释放国会搁置的空军提名。
