From this week's AW&ST

"Air Force May Form Strategic Command"


Would that also be known as "Strategic Air Command" with the
associated acronym of SAC?


Actually, it is a review of the "unified" command structure,
considering combining of the recently established Northern Command
with the long existing Southern Command to form a sort of N/S America
continental command. Other unified commands include Eucom, Pacom and
Centcom for examples.

Strategic Air Command was a "specified" command which gave it a
separate status from the operational control of the unified commands.
The other specified command was MAC.


Specified commands still exist as well; FORSCOM in the Army, and I believe
ACC would qualify in the USAF.

Partially true Brooks. Specified Commands still exist in theory, they are
part of the Unified Command Plan, but there are none of them "stood up".
Look at the link below for an explanation of the current structure.
