AFA's Next Mitchell Hour: Strategy in a Time of Austerity

Mark your calendars for the last event of the year from the Mitchell Institute for Airpower Studies. AFA's next Mitchell Hour welcomes Dr. Andrew Krepinevich, defense policy analyst and President of the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments (CSBA), as the guest speaker. The topic of his discussion is “Strategy in a Time of Austerity.”

Dr. Andrew Krepinevich is a recognized intellectual leader within the national security community. As president of the CSBA, he leads a team who has helped inform and shape the public discourse on the matters of strategy, defense planning and military investment options for the 21st century; and formulated concepts of operations to address the emerging anti-access area denial threats. During this Mitchell Hour, he will discuss his most recent article, “Strategy in a Time of Austerity: Why the Pentagon Should Focus on Assuring Access”—published in the November/December 2012 issue of Foreign Affairs.

This Mitchell event will take place on Tuesday, December 18, 2012, from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., at AFA’s national headquarters. Mitchell Hours are free to attend. Find out more here: http://www.afa.org/media/press/2012/Mitchell-1212.asp
