 Name the Tanker: Leaders seek inputs from Airmen

5/15/2008 - WASHINGTON (AFPN) -- Air Force senior leaders are asking all Airmen for suggestions on a name for the service's newest tanker aircraft, the KC-45A.

"I've asked that we seek our Airmen's help to find a name for the KC-45," said Secretary of the Air Force Michael Wynne. "I prefer the name emphasize our heritage or our future horizon, but I'm most interested to see what our Airmen suggest."

As the future operators of the KC-45A, Air Mobility Command officials gathered many good suggestions from personnel in their units. Those submissions will be on the list of names considered during final selection. However, the opportunity to submit proposed names is now open to all Air Force personnel.

Until May 30, active duty, Guard and Reserve Airmen, as well as Air Force government civilians, can submit their suggestions to namethetanker@pentagon.af.mil.

Suggested names must be brief, no more than two short words.

Along with the suggestion, entrants must include a brief explanation for their idea.

Entrants must also include their name, rank, contact information and duty station. Government civilians must identify their office and position. MORE>>

 Rice: U.S. Warned Carter Not to Talk to Hamas

KUWAIT CITY —  Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Tuesday the Bush administration explicitly warned former President Jimmy Carter against meeting with members of Hamas, the Palestinian faction that controls the Gaza Strip and which is regarded by the U.S. as a terror group.

Rice, attending a regional meeting on Iraq's security and future, contradicted Carter's assertions that he never got a clear signal from the State Department. Rice told reporters that the U.S. thought the visit could confuse the message that the U.S. will not deal with Hamas.

"I just don't want there to be any confusion," Rice said. "The United States is not going to deal with Hamas and we had certainly told President Carter that we did not think meeting with Hamas was going to help" further a political settlement between Israel and the Palestinians.

Carter said top Hamas leaders told him during seven hours of talks in Damascus over the weekend that they are willing to live next to Israel, but a top Hamas official said the group would never outright recognize the Jewish state.

Separately Tuesday, a Hamas official said the militant group has softened its demands for a cease-fire with Israel.  MORE>>

Message to whoever runs this site. As the senior LeaveWeb administrator, we respectfully request you delete your links to the AF LeaveWeb site, as it is unusable and creates users calls to us. LeaveWeb is only accessible through the AF Portal and directly from a .mil or .gov system. Your link attaches a .com address on the traffic which is rejected by LeaveWeb in every instance. I am sure your intentions are good in posting it, but it will not work. Thank You.
