The B-17 and Preparing for World War II! 21 Second Line of Defense!April 2013 1 Preface In this Special Report, we look at the B-17 and its role in World War II. The report has been generated by the opportunity to honor a B-17 crew in a ceremony this June in France. We start in the report by remembering the Greatest Generation and a piece by the Honorable Bill Ander- son, which does so with grace. But the thrust of this report is to bring this generation back to earth and to place the B-17 deci- sion in the context of the 1930s. The B-17 barely made it through the decision-process of the 1930s and was not built in the numbers necessary to ensure that it was used effectively and ap- propriately. Only after the Germans and the Japanese taught the United States a great deal about air combat, did the B-17 concepts of operations get adjusted with appropriate technology and operational approaches to become effective.

  • Lt Gen Frank Andrews and the Role of Airpower in Hemispheric Security Johannes R
    Feature Lt Gen Frank Andrews and the Role of Airpower in Hemispheric Security Johannes R. Allert en Dwight Eisenhower had big shoes to fill when news con- cerning the death of Lt Gen Frank M. Andrews circulated throughout the Pentagon.1 In his eulogy to the aviator, Gen GGeorge C. Marshall placed him in a select category that included the nation’s few great captains.2 Such high praise from someone with de- manding standards directed toward an individual whose life was cut short so early in the war raises the question, What made Andrews so important? Although historians often designate him a proponent of an independent air force that would conduct strategic bombing or as Eisenhower’s predecessor, they overlook his talent in conducting com- bined operations.3 Compared to his fellow aviators, Andrews possessed over a decade’s experience in the regular Army prior to earning his wings. A cavalryman by trade, he later served as a general’s adjutant and received advanced training and education from the US Army’s Command and General Staff School and the War College, making him a May–June 2013 Air & Space Power Journal | 48 Feature Allert Lt Gen Frank Andrews and the Role of Airpower in Hemispheric Security rarity among his fellow pilots.4 This background had considerable bear- ing on his promotion to head the newly formed General Headquarters (GHQ) Air Force. Traditionally, historians emphasize the latter’s role in the service’s transition to independence but give short shrift to its vital participation in joint operations with Army and Navy forces.5 Mobility exercises conducted throughout the country in the GHQ Air Force’s first two years of existence demonstrated its importance, forcing avia- tors to come down to earth and recognize problems associated with combined operations in all types of weather involving a variety of air and land assets—aspects with which Andrews was familiar.
