      Where can I find information regarding congressional approval of promotions of Air Force officers during the period from 1960 through 1975.    Is that information contained in Senate records for individual years?

          Hi Allen -- thank you for posting to History Hub!

           

          You can find information on congressional approval of the promotion of Air Force officers in the Senate Executive Journal -- in addition to the legislative journal, the Senate keeps an executive journal to record its proceedings that relate to the functions of confirming presidential nominees and consenting to the making of treaties.

           

          The full text of the Senate Executive Journal is available through HeinOnline, a subscription database. I'd recommend checking with local academic or law libraries for access.

           

          It can also be found digitized through HathiTrust Digital Library.

           

          Cheers!

          Sarah
