This administrative procedure was intended to give some suggestion as to what the mission of that command was to be under the new structure of the air arm. One effect the order had was upon the American language. Very soon after that order was issued, SAC pronounced as a word of one syllable would be commonplace usage of everyone in or involved with the command. This volume recounts how the Army Air Forces and its successor organization, the U.S. Air Force, organized, trained and equipped strategic air forces for a worldwide mission. The period of history covered in this volume has been heavily studied. It is the opening era of the Cold War between the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the western countries led by the United States.This volume presents a larger focus. It concerns the American air forces efforts to build a strategic force. The emphasis is on the leaders, the political context, programs, and forces. A significant element of the subject concerns air doctrine, but here this is seen primarily in terms of the experience the leadership of the air arm had had with air warfare.The strategic force here described was not only by 1953 the premier command of the Air Force. It was the centerpiece of national strategy. The intention here will be to connect the development of the strategy of atomic deterrence with the actual composition and nature of that force. The importance of the Air Force as an institution in American life, and the role of the strategic force in that institution, would seem to establish the importance of the subject.American air leaders believed that the consequences of the air arms not being ready to carry out such an offensive, through failure to plan or for any other reason, could be grave. These, then, were disturbing times.
