    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Department of the Air Force is responsible for defending the United
    States through control and exploitation of air and space.

    The Department of the Air Force (USAF) was established as part of the
    National Military Establishment by the National Security Act of 1947 (61
    Stat. 502) and came into being on September 18, 1947. The National
    Security Act Amendments of 1949 redesignated the National Military
    Establishment as the Department of Defense, established it as an
    executive department, and made the Department of the Air Force a
    military department within the Department of Defense (63 Stat. 578). The
    Department of the Air Force is separately organized under the Secretary
    of the Air Force. It operates under the authority, direction, and
    control of the Secretary of Defense (10 U.S.C. 8010). The Department
    consists of the Office of the Secretary of the Air Force, the Air Staff,
    and field organizations.
    Secretary  The Secretary is responsible for matters pertaining to
    organization, training, logistical support, maintenance, welfare of
    personnel, administrative, recruiting, research and development, and
    other activities prescribed by the President or the Secretary of
    Defense.
    Air Staff  The mission of the Air Staff is to furnish professional
    assistance to the Secretary, the Under Secretary, the Assistant
    Secretaries, and the Chief of Staff in executing their responsibilities.
    Field Organizations  The major commands, field operating agencies, and
    direct reporting units together represent the field organizations of the
    Air Force. These are organized primarily on a functional basis in the
    United States and on an area basis overseas. These commands are
    responsible for accomplishing certain phases of the worldwide activities
    of the Air Force. They also are responsible for organizing,
    administering, equipping, and training their subordinate elements for
    the accomplishment of assigned missions.

    Major Commands

    The Continental U.S. Commands

    Air Combat Command  This Command operates Air Force bombers and CONUS-
    based, combat-coded fighter and attack aircraft. It organizes, trains,
    equips, and maintains combat-ready forces for rapid deployment and
    employment while ensuring strategic air defense forces are ready to meet
    the challenges of peacetime air sovereignty and wartime air defense.
    Air Force Materiel Command  This Command advances, integrates, and uses
    technology to develop, test, acquire, and sustain weapons systems. It
    also performs single-manager continuous product and process improvement
