This study was initiated by the special Air Force study team established by Headquarters, United States Air Force, to review the Morale, Welfare, and Recreation (MWR) program administered worldwide by Air Force commanders. The study team asked the Analysis Division, Directorate of Personnel Plans, Deputy Chief of Staff, Personnel, Headquarters, United States Air Force, to support the study with analyses of the current MWR program, of the environment in which MWR programs operate, and of the operational issues which have focused the current attention of decision-makers, within and external to the United States Air Force, on MWR program. The MWR program is not a stand- alone program. It represents an institutionally ingrained component of the Air Force's effort to sustain a high degree of readiness and retention. MWR activities are key factors which help to demonstrate Air Force leadership's genuine concern for the welfare of service members and their families. Properly resourced and applied, the MWR program affects the servicemembers aspirations and motivations, sense of pride, and sense of belonging. The goals of MWR program are implemented through diverse activities that provide community and family services, support a strong degree of physical fitness though individual and team-oriented functions, foster social gatherings and events, and sponsor recreational activities.

Cities and Their Vital Systems asks basic questions about the longevity, utility, and nature of urban infrastructures; analyzes how they grow, interact, and change; and asks how, when, and at what cost they should be replaced. Among the topics discussed are problems arising from increasing air travel and airport congestion; the adequacy of water supplies and waste treatment; the impact of new technologies on construction; urban real estate values; and the field of "telematics," the combination of computers and telecommunications that makes money machines and national newspapers possible.

Morale, welfare, and recreation (MWR) activities in the military services receive subsidies of more than $600 million in appropriated funds annually. Military resale activities such as exchanges, clubs, sports, and hobby shops take in more than $5 billion each year. In fiscal year (FY) 1978, and again in 1979, the Congress limited the number of military personnel assigned to these programs. The 1978 ceiling was set at 10,201 (an expected reduction of 1,750 military slots); the 1979 limit was 9,901. The ceilings were intended to reduce the appropriated funds supporting these activities and make more military personnel available for combat-related assignments. The services did not have to make any reductions to meet the 1978 ceiling of 10,201 because at the beginning of the year only 10,017 military personnel were assigned. However, the services did reassign 923 military personnel during the year. On the basis of a survey of 519 military installations, GAO concluded that FY 1978 reductions had little impact on MWR activities. The military services could save $5,700 annually for each civilian appropriated fund employee substituted for a service member assigned to MWR activities. Substituting civilians for all military positions would save up to $57 million annually. While most of the 9,901 military positions can and should be filled by civilians, some factors could limit the extent of substitution, such as: congressional limits on federal civilian employment; labor agreements with other countries; rotation base requirements; and assignments in deployable combat and combat support units.
