Major General John L. Piotrowski,
Deputy Commander for Air Defense,
Tactical Air Command (ADTAC), visi-
ted Air Forces Iceland (AFI), and
the Nato Base last week.
The General was here for an
orientation of AFI units and served
as guest speaker for the AFI Dining
IN held on Saturday.
General Piotrowski received
briefings on all Air Force missions
in Iceland. He toured the AFI Log-
istics complex, the 57th Fighter
Interceptor Squadron: the 932nd Air-
craft Control and Warning Squadron;
the 960th Airborne Warning and Con-
trol Support Squadron; detachment 14
of the 67th Aerospace Rescue and Re-
covery Squadron; and Dye 5 Connuni-
cations facility.
The general flew a combat train-
ing flight in the 57th FIS F-4E
Phantom to see first hand how the
mission is performed here in Ice-
land. He met with officers and en-
listed personnel to discuss subjects
of mutual interest. During these
meetings, General Piotrowski expres-
sed his deep concern for the quality
of life of Air Forces personnel
stationed in Iceland.
The General has visited Iceland
several times in the past, however,
this was his first visit to AFI as
the ADTAC Commander.
New program
con’t from page 1
he continued, "always has been that
authority will be responsibly ex-
ercised at lower echelons, and the
constant push by supervisors should
be for more delegation downward."
He closed by saying, "I encourage
supervisors at all levels to fully
embrace the buck stop philosophy in
both theory and practice."
A project office for managing the
Buck Stop program has been estab-
lished within headquarters TAC, dep-
uty chief of staff for personnel un-
der Col. Thomas J. Hickey. Major
subordinate units are being encour-
aged to identify project offices and
responsible individuals as well.
To help facilitate communications
a Buck Stop telephone number that
can be reached around the clock has
been established at Headquarters
TAC. Messages are recorded during
night hours. That autovon number is
432-3030.
