Our featured organization in this edition is the Security Assistance Accounting Office of the Defense Finance and Accounting Service-Indianapolis Center (DFAS-IN). Topics of interest include U.S. concerns regarding Iran and the DoD's role in Foreign Assistance, a theme that carries through indirectly, if not directly in other articles. Several articles deal with exports, U.S. and those of other countries. Other articles deal with technology transfer issues, including one by the Acting Director of the Defense Technology Security Administration, Mr. James Hursch. Ken Martin's compilation of Fiscal Year 2009 Security Cooperation Legislation, the Journal edition, has a brief introduction - the entire article can be found on the DISAM web site. Growing partnerships and the capacities of our partners cross boundaries of the sections of the Journal and in our efforts to capture best practices, we have included Lean Six Sigma efforts within our Education and Training Section along with the SAMM tips and lessons learned via DISAM's "Ask an Instructor" venue.

What a jam-packed DISAM Journal as we hit mid-summer - only highlights the many and varied activities that our workforce deals with on any given day. There are a number of articles that I could highlight on this initial page, but I will simply note this one - as it is one that many "chomp at the bit for" each year. The signifi cant article is the annual synopsis of fi scal year (FY) 2010 Security Cooperation Legislation which makes up about one-third of this edition. Many view it as a great single source that ties all the initiatives together in an easy-to-read package. With the emphasis regarding the training of our workforce, let me focus my comments on that effort that is taking a lot of initiative and time by folks within Combatant Commands, CONUSbased security cooperation (SC) organizations and DISAM. As noted in the last edition of the Journal 31-4 (you may want to go back and review that if you missed it) and addressed in VADM Wieringa's comments in an article printed in this edition on page 183 and a brief update by Greg Sutton on page 185), efforts continue in pursuit of the DEPSECDEF's High Priority Performance Goal, to ensure that at least 95% of the SC workforce has their appropriate level of DISAM (SC) training by the end of FY 2011 - with even greater focus on the interim goal of 80% by the end of FY 2010. Within this quarter DISAM has fi elded the Security Cooperation Workforce Database (SCWD) on the Security Assistance Network (SANweb) which provides for the constant update and monitoring of personnel making up our workforce - with additions continuing to come in we now have over 11,000 billets and currently almost 10,700 personnel worldwide in the many constituent organizations.

Download Building Security in Africa Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The United States has sought to combat security threats in Africa principally by supporting partner governments, and security sector assistance (SSA) has been one of the primary tools it has used. Rigorous evaluations of the overall impact of SSA, however, have been extremely rare. A RAND Corporation study used statistical models to evaluate the impact that U.S.-provided SSA has had on political violence in Africa-in particular, the incidence of civil wars and insurgencies, terrorist attacks, and state repression. The authors found that SSA has had a mixed record. During the Cold War, SSA likely exacerbated instability, leading to a higher incidence of civil wars. During the post-Cold War era, it seems to have had little net effect, likely reflecting recipient-government failures to sustain the capabilities developed through SSA and to harness these capability gains to effective political-military strategies. When SSA has been implemented in conjunction with peacekeeping operations, however, it has had a consistently positive impact across a range of outcomes, including the likelihood of civil war recurrence, the incidence of terrorist attacks, and the extent of state repression. These findings have important implications for future U.S. policies in Africa and potentially beyond.

Download International Cooperation with Partner Air Forces Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The Air Force faces a challenging environment as it devises an approach to managing security cooperation with partner countries. The important mission of countering terrorist and insurgent groups abroad requires working closely with allies and partner countries to strengthen security. Accordingly, current U.S. defense strategy emphasizes that the U.S. armed forces should do more to work "by, with, and through partners" to accomplish missions.
