If this doesn't show you how poorly the USAF is managed, nothing will.

The previous AF Secretary was pushing to get the AF down to 316,000 by the end of FY 07 to free up money for recapitalization. The new AF Secretary is pushing to go back up to 330,000.
The only other option I can see would have been to involuntarily separate some folks in 07. It would probably be a bit tougher to get those disgruntled people back when needed.
Was there a better way to do it? (Seriously, I'm asking ...)
