Summary:

This memo is in response to your request for an assessment of the Secretary of the Air Force's October 9, 2003 letter to the Chairman and Ranking Minority Member of the Senate Armed Services Committee in which he describes recent corrosion documentation for the KC-135E fleet and the rationale for a sole-source logistics support contract for the KC-767. Below you will find our observations divided into two sections; the first relating to corrosion documentation, the second to the logistics support contract. Please note that CRS does not take a position on any public policy issue.
