摘要

During an inbriefing, I asked Maj Gen Charles N. Simpson, at that time the director of air and space operations for US Air Forces in Europe (USAFE), what services he expected from USAFE's History Office (HO). "I'm not exactly sure what you provide me," he responded. "Frankly, if you cannot provide me real-time service—what I need, when I need it—then you really cannot help me at all." His answer was direct, to the point, eye-to-eye, and delivered exactly as most of us in the history business want our dealings with our commanders. However, the statement was both revealing and alarming. It was revealing because it followed on the heels of comments from Gen John Jumper, then the chief of staff of the Air Force, who challenged the service's historians to "do whatever it takes to be more involved in, and help improve the combat capability of the United States Air Force." It was alarming because if we historians fail to provide our leadership with timely services, then perhaps our career field may soon become extinct!

Simpson），他对美国空军历史办公室（HO）的期望是什么。他回答说：“我不确定你能为我提供什么。” “坦率地说，如果您不能为我提供实时服务（我所需要的，当我需要的时候），那么您真的根本无法帮助我。”他的回答是直截了当的，直截了当，而且完全按照历史事务中我们大多数人希望与我们的指挥官打交道来传达。但是，这一声明既令人启示又令人震惊。它之所以具有启示性，是因为它是紧随当时的美国空军参谋长约翰·霍珀将军发表评论之后提出的，他挑战了空军的历史学家，“竭尽所能，参与进来，并帮助提高空军的作战能力。美国空军。”令人震惊的是，如果我们的历史学家未能及时为我们的领导提供服务，那么我们的职业领域也许很快就会灭绝！
