"The importance of space to our defensive military effort can only increase in the future," Gen. Samuel C. Phillips, retiring commander of the Air Force Systems Command and NASA's Apollo Program Director from 1964-69, said in an interview. Gen. Phillips speculated that aircraft, including the B-1 bomber under development by the U.S., would be an important part of the military force "for as many decades ahead as anyone cares to project." However, he saw energy scarcities increasing the need for training simulators and alternative aircraft fuels. (AFSC Newsreview, Aug 75, 1)
