History

ALSA traces its history back to 1973, when Chief of Staff of the Air Force George Scratchley Brown and Chief of Staff of the Army Creighton Abrams initiated a dialog between the air force's Tactical Air Command (TAC, now Air Combat Command, ACC) and the United States Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) to increase coordination and interoperability between the two branches. In 1975, TAC and TRADOC established the Air-Land Forces Application (ALFA) to create joint doctrine for conducting air-land battle. In 1992, Marine Corps Combat Development Command (MCCDC) and United States Atlantic Fleet (USLANTFLT, now United States Fleet Forces Command, USFF) assigned personnel to ALFA and it became ALSA.[3]
