Since squadron commanders have legal responsibility for the mission and resources,1 senior leaderefforts to improve efficiencies and mission performance. Over the last decade, several organizations and career fields have reorganized, realigned, or merged, resultingship and the American people should reasonably expect them to be held accountable for their organizations actions. Therefore, the squadron must be properly structured for manageable oversight to ensure justified accountability.
