Abstract

Air Force Doctrine Document 3-34, Engineer Operations, specifies that U.S. Air Force (AF) engineers “provide, operate, maintain, and protect sustainable installations as weapon system platforms through engineering and emergency response services."

However, since 9/11, Air Force Civil Engineers repeatedly have been called to fill much farther-reaching mission sets. Therefore, as warfare continues to evolve, all U.S. military personnel can anticipate supporting joint-service teams with irregular warfare missions such as stability operations.
