For nearly fifty years, citizen airmen have served in the nation’s defense as members of the Air Force Reserve. Citizen Airmen: A History of the Air Force Reserve, 1946-1994 begins with the fledgling air reserve program initiated in 1916, traces its progress through World War 11, and then concentrates on the period 1946 through 1994. The study skillfully describes the process by which a loosely organized program evolved into today’s impressive force. The Air Force Reserve story is told within the context of national political and military policy and stresses that over the decades, as national needs have increased, reservists have met the challenges.
