Academic Year 1996 Air National Guard Toolbook
Abstract
The purpose of this project is to educate military commanders, appropriate staff officers, their civilian counterparts, active duty, and National Guard personnel on the Air National Guard (ANG). This project focuses on accurately describing the ANG, its capabilities and resources, why it is needed, and how it can be accessed. In developing the academic year (AY) ToolBook, the ANG ToolBook (AY95) was used as a starting point for our three-phased project. Phase I included evaluating the existing ToolBook and developing a new streamlined architectural protocol that vastly improved ToolBook navigation and presentation format. Phase II consisted of expanding the focus of the ToolBook from flying-only units to both flying and support units, while simultaneously updating information contained in the AY95 ToolBook. Phase III was a consolidation of information available concerning the activation of the ANG. Information available on National Guard activation did not accurately reflect changes since the Gulf War. Information that was available was widely dispersed, confusing, and outdated. The heart of this project embodied researching, consolidating, and synthesizing accurate activation information. The result is a ToolBook chapter which is a single source record of the current activation policy and processes.
