Prelaunch Notes

LT COL ANTHONY C. CAIN, EDITOR

Aerospace Power Journal (ASPJ) welcomes Lt Col Malcolm Grimes, who steps in for Lt Col Scott Wierschke as senior editor. Colonel Grimes recently completed a tour as professor of air and space studies at Grambling State University in Grambling, Louisiana.

Congratulations to Mr. Al Lopes, editor of ASPJ in Portuguese, who recently received the Medalho do Mérito Aeronáutico (Aeronautical Medal of Merit) from the Portuguese government. This award, the equivalent of the US Legion of Merit, recognizes Mr. Lopes for his years of excellent work as editor and for his selfless service as host to international students and their families at the Air War College and Air Command and Staff College, Maxwell AFB, Alabama. Congratulations, Al!

Throughout the coming year, we will devote several pages of each issue of ASPJ to the history of air and space power as part of our preparation for the winter 2003 issue, which will commemorate the centennial of powered flight. If you have an article or would like to write one related to the history, doctrine, technological development, or future of air and space power, please let us know!

We also have plans to feature articles on counterproliferation, emerging air and space power technologies, regional security issues, the war on terrorism, and special operations, as well as on leading air and space power professionals. Send E-mail to us at aspj@maxwell.af.mil  for information on how to go about getting your work published.
