Air Force Chief Of Staff Norman Schwartz Confirmed To
Appear
As asymmetric threats around the world continue to emerge, there
comes pressure to defend the aerial space from potential warfare.
At the same time, budgets are declining as the current war efforts
wind down, and military leaders have tough choices to make.
At the Air Force Association's (AFA) 27th annual Air Warfare
Symposium and Technology Exposition, expect to hear timely
presentations from senior military leaders and aerospace
professionals on the issues facing the aerospace community. This
year's Symposium will be held Feb. 23-24, 2012, at the Rosen
Shingle Creek Hotel in Orlando, Florida. Last year's symposium
included the top echelon in Air Force leadership, with Secretary of
the Air Force Michael B. Donley, Chief of Staff of the Air Force
General Norton A. Schwartz and Chief Master Sergeant of the Air
Force James A. Roy leading conference addresses.
Identifying and addressing the challenges facing the aerospace
community is imperative—eliciting the need for a national
event to share critical information. The Air Warfare Symposium and
Technology Exposition is an opportunity to engage in meaningful
dialogue, discussing advances in aerospace technology, the
challenges that still present themselves to our national defense,
and strategies to help understand the power of aerial warfare.
Confirmed Speakers:
- Chief of Staff of the Air Force Gen. Norton A. Schwartz
- Gen. Donald J. Hoffman, Air Force Materiel Command
- Gen. Gary L. North, Pacific Air Forces
- Gen. Edward A. Rice, Air Education & Training Command
- Gen. Mark A. Welsh, United States Air Forces in Europe
- Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force James A. Roy
Also, exhibits highlighting aerospace technology and education,
sponsored by leading aerospace companies, will be on display as
part of the Technology Exposition.
