The American Expeditionary Forces Air Service When Maj. Gen. John J. Pershing departed for France in May 1917 to command the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF), his staff included an aviation officer because, by that period of World War I, aviation had proved its utility as a means of war. Despite several reorganizations, changes in personnel, and redistributions of authority, the AEF maintained an air service until its demobi- lization and return to the United States during the summer of 1919. The AEF Air Service was ultimately responsible to the commander in chief of the expeditionary forces for the organization, train- ing, supply, and employment of AEF aviation units that included observation balloons as well as airplanes. The evolution of the AEF Air Service organization can be traced in AEF General Orders, No.

  • From Crop Duster to Airline; the Origins of Delta Air Lines to World War II
    Roots: From Crop Duster to Airline; The Origins of Delta Air Lines to World War II by James John Hoogerwerf A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama December 13, 2010 Keywords: Delta Laboratory, Huff Daland, Delta Air Lines, B. R. Coad, Harold R. Harris, C.E. Woolman Copyright 2010 by James John Hoogerwerf Approved by William F. Trimble, Chair, Professor of History James R. Hansen, Professor of History Alan D. Meyer, Assistant Professor of History Tiffany A. Thomas, Assistant Professor of History Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to the memory of Dr. W. David Lewis Distinguished University Professor of History Auburn University (1931-2007) ii Abstract Delta Air Lines (Delta) is one of the great surviving legacy airlines of the first century of flight. In the annals of American aviation history its origins are unique. Delta’s beginning can be traced to the arrival of the boll weevil from Mexico into Texas in 1892. Unlike other national airlines that were nurtured on mail subsidies, Delta evolved from experiments using airplanes to counter the cotton weevil scourge from the air. The iconic book on the subject is Delta: The History of an Airline authored by two eminent Auburn University history professors, W. David Lewis and Wesley Phillips Newton. This dissertation explores more closely the circumstances and people involved in Delta’s early years up to World War II. It is chronologically organized and written in a narrative style. It argues Delta’s development was the result of a decades-long incremental and evolutionary process and not the calculated result of a grand design or the special insight of any one person.

  • Major General Mason Mathews Patrick
    Major General Mason Mathews Patrick General Mason Patrick was one of the most influential figures in the development of American airpower, and he and his contributions are often overlooked. It was Patrick's steady hand and his determination that brought about the establishment of the United States Army Air Corps in July 1926. He was not given to flashy speeches nor did he have the personality to attract the press or adulation of the public. Patrick was an unlikely airman who became one of the fathers of the modern U.S. Air Force. Patrick was born in West Virginia in December 1863. His father was a surgeon with the Confederate Army. In 1882 Patrick entered West Point, graduating as an engineer officer in 1886. One of his classmates and friends was John J. Pershing, and their friendship would have a great effect on the course of Patrick's military career. From 1892 to 1895 Patrick taught engineering at his alma mater, and from 1897 to 1901 he was involved with improvements along the Mississippi river. In 1916 Patrick served under Pershing during the Mexico campaign, and when Pershing went to France in 1917 he saw to it that Patrick served in the AEF as Chief Engineer, Line of Communication. What was very clear was that Brigadier General Patrick was a first-rate organizer and an excellent manager of the men serving under him.
