Director Discusses Air Force Capabilities

In July, the chapter welcomed Dr. Steven Butler as the luncheon speaker. Butler is executive director, Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC), Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. He advises the AFMC commander in managing all aspects of the command's mission to deliver war-winning capabilities, and aircraft and weapon systems on time and on cost to America's warfighters. The command's 74,000 people manage $59 billion annually in research, development, test and evaluation while providing the acquisition management services and logistics support required to develop, procure and sustain Air Force weapon systems.
