Hap the Story of the U S Air Force and the Man Who Built It General Henry H. "Hap" Arnold
New York New York U.S.A.: Viking Press 1982. 416 pages illus notyes bibliog index. General of the Air Force Henry H. "Hap" Arnold an incurable maverick whom the U.S. Army never learned to control became nonetheless one of only four permanent five-star generals in the nation's history and one of America's most important military leaders of all time. During forty-one years of active service he compiled an unparalleled record as an airman and was truly the father of the modern Air Force. In 1911 four years after his graduation from West Point the Wright brothers taught him to fly and he became the holder of U.S. Army pilot's license number two. His rise through the ranks was marked by controversy and when he took command of the Army Air Corps in 1938 it was a puny collection of 20000 men and a few hundred planes none good enough to face Germany's modern air force.
