Opportunities To Streamline

The Air Force Headquarters

Structure In The Pacific



The Chairman, House Committee on Appro-
priations, asked GAO to make this review af-
ter the Secretary of Defense's decision in
1974 to disestablish Headquarters, Pacific Air
Forces, was not carried out.

Some streamlining in Hawaii was made. How-
ever, GAO found that $16 million could be
saved annually if the Pacific Air Forces would
reduce excessive layering (performing the
same functions at different echelons) and du-
plication of its headquarters staffs. These
savings might be achieved through alternative
approaches to reduce, consolidate, or elimi-
nate portions of its widespread Pacific struc-
ture commanded by headquarters in Hawaii,
Japan, and the Philippines.

GAO recommends that the House Appropri-
ations Committee explore with the Secretary
of Defense the opportunities discussed in this
report to make further reductions in the Paci-
fic Air Forces' headquarters and related su-
bordinate staffs and achieve additional annual
savings.
