The use of the Carbine by the Air Force after WWII and Korea I believe is relevant to Gen. Curtis LeMay's promotion of Stoner's AR rifle that became the M16 and was first used by the Air Force. Not having any Infantry responsibilities, LeMay wanted another lightweight rifle for guard duty, security, etc. since the M1 Carbine was obsolete.
