Maj. James Schmitt is the winner of the inaugural Inspiring Doctrinal Innovation essay contest conducted by the Curtis E. LeMay Center for Doctrine Development and Education at Air University.

Maj. James Schmitt is the winner of the inaugural Inspiring Doctrinal Innovation essay contest conducted by the Curtis E. LeMay Center for Doctrine Development and Education at Air University. He was selected among 25 other authors who submitted their works for consideration in the contest, which explored the prompt: “Discuss how specific USAF operational doctrine will need to change, or new doctrine adopted, due to the changing character of war expected over the next 10 years.” The Air Force Doctrine Development division of The LeMay Center organized the essay contest, in partnership with MGMWERX and the Air University Innovation Accelerator, with the overall goal of getting Airmen interested in, and talking about, Air Force doctrine. The contest gets after the Air Force chief of staff’s call to “understand the lessons of doctrine, and then draw on them to innovate and incorporate concepts and technologies that will develop new best practices to shape future doctrine.”
