Kirkwood Donald said the Air Force culture needed to be changed to stress the importance of the nuclear mission.
For his part Schlesinger gave a short history lesson to frame the problem.
'The nuclear mission has altered substantially since the days of the Cold War,' he said.
During the Cold War, the NATO allies were fearful that the Warsaw Pact countries held a conventional force advantage over the Western allies. The nuclear umbrella America provided deterred the Soviet Union and its allies from attacking.
'That mission has gone by the boards,' Schlesinger said. 'The nuclear deterrent role today is quite different, and it is much more circumscribed than it was in the days of the Cold War. However, it is no less important, despite the fact that the domain of the nuclear mission has shrunk.'
By treaty, the United States still holds the nuclear umbrella over the NATO countries, Japan, Korea, Australia and New Zealand. 'The confidence that they have in that umbrella will determine whether or not they themselves may seek to acquire nuclear weapons,' Schlesinger said
