This paper will examine air mobility building partnership (BP) history, operations, and policy issues. Historically, Air Mobility Command (AMC) is no stranger to the Building Partnership Capacity (BPC) mission. Each day, AMC Airmen are the front-line mentors and advisors forging enduring relationships with nascent partner nation (PN) airmen in an array of mobility missions and skill sets. In this dynamic and rapidly changing international environment with competing influences and limited United States foreign presence and resources, the effective institution of mobility BPCs is key to facilitating Combatant Commander's individual Theater Campaign Plans (TCP) and the U. S. National Defense Strategy (NDS). Through careful planning and coordination with allies and government organizations (GO) the United States will ensure the effective employment of limited air mobility BP resources. In this paper, the author will discuss the global trends, legal constraints, fiscal limitations, and lessons learned as AMC stands up BP units, formal training, and plans future deployments in support of combatant commanders and U. S. Policy. The successful execution of air mobility BP missions in support of PN air mobility system development will encourage future security cooperation (SC), economic development, care for the indigenous population, and promote regional and global stability. | An Examination Of Air Mobility Building Partnership History And The Policy Implications For Future Operations by Alton White, Paperback
