A survey of the various elements of Air Mobility Command (AMC) reveals a distinct cultural change throughout the organization. From the top leadership to the unit level, many in AMC have either adopted or are in the process of adopting a warfighting mindset, looking for ways to mitigate the threat instead of avoiding the threat environment. The current mobility culture is more combat focused, and more capable of meeting the challenges of a non-permissive environment. No longer is the mobility air force (MAF) simply following standard rules and regulations to ensure personnel, cargo and fuel are delivered to the right warfighters, at the right place and time. Instead, the MAF is responding to the transformational defense agenda directed by the President of the United States and articulated in the 2001 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR)...and to the operational experiences of the last four years. As Major General Mark Volcheff, the AMC Director of Operations (AMC/A3) said in his 3 March 2004 message to all MAF wing and group commanders: We are going from a culture of rules and regulations to a command of tactical thinking warriors.
