Beverly Follis worked in the History Office of the Air Force Systems Command from 1982 through 1992 as an Individual Mobilization Augmentee. Her work involved various projects involving research and writing. Some projects were very extensive requiring months of research and writing. Research was accomplished through interviews, reading current material such as newspapers and periodicals, scanning files of data and library research. She became a full time Command Historian about a year before the Command closed at Andrews AFB, Washington, D.C., to merge into the Air Materiel Command at Wright-Patterson AFB, OH. Her duties were to supervise the completion of the final annual history of Air Force Systems Command; to supervise the transfer of 6 tons of the archives (to include classified documents) from Washington, D.C. to Dayton, OH.

Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) R&D is spreading globally at an accelerating rate. As a result, the relative U.S. position in a number of MSE subfields is in a state of flux. To understand better this trend and its implications for the U.S. economy and national security, the Department of Defense (DOD) asked the NRC to assess the status and impacts of the global spread of MSE R&D. This report presents a discussion of drivers affecting U.S. companies'" decisions about location of MSE R&D, an analysis of impacts on the U.S. economy and national security, and recommendations to ensure continued U.S. access to critical MSE R&D. This report includes: Table of Contents; Front Matter; Executive Summary; 1 Materials as Global Activity: Setting the Scene; 2 Globalization of Materials Research & Development Activity; 3 Benchmarking of Materials Science and Engineering R&D; 4 The Regulatory Regime as a Driver; 5 Assessing the Impacts of Materials Science and Engineering R&D Globalization; 6 Conclusions and Recommendations; Appendix A Committee Biographies; Appendix B Presentations to the Committee at its Public Meetings; Appendix C Global Trends in MSE Patents; Appendix D Global Trends in Literature Authorship; Appendix E Results of Community Poll; Appendix F Superalloy Case Study; Appendix G Environmental and Safety and Health Regulations; and Appendix H Defining 21st Century Defense Needs. Among the Reviews was Siegfried Hecker of the Los Alamos National Laboratory. More
