Great history lesson, Linda!


Happy birthday to the only 5-star General of the Air Force -- Henry "Hap" Arnold! General Arnold was especially interested in the development of sophisticated aerospace technology to give the United States an edge in achieving air superiority. He fostered the development of jet aircraft, rockets, rocket assisted takeoff and supersonic flight.

Arnold helped found the Air Force Association. I am a Life Member. I wonder if the Arnold Air Society still exists at AFROTC colleges? Going to the Post Office and the U Maine Machias gym. Be back to lurk more at women in uniform.
