Air Force Chief Credits Air Power in Vietnam Effort
Air Force Chief of Staff John D. Ryan in Omaha on Sunday said it would be an exaggeration to claim air power alone prevented a catastrophe in South Vietnam. He noted air strength was planned and vital to strategy, but U.S. force levels in Southeast Asia are not the same as in 1968. Ryan attended the 28th anniversary celebration of the Strategic Air Command, a unit he once commanded.
