Baboonlouie, That's revisionist history. The Air Force wasn't even created until after WWII. Prior to that it was the Army Air Corps.

Embarrassed to admit I got this wrong. My father worked in the Pentagon for many years. As a kid, I was petrified I'd get lost in those halls. One of the few times I held my dad's hand as he guided me through the halls.
