Helping Airmen Since 1942
2018 ANNUAL REPORT HELPING AIRMEN SINCE 1942 OUR MISSION To support Airmen and enhance the Air Force mission by relieving emergency financial distress, helping Airmen’s families achieve their educational goals, and improving their quality of life through proactive programs. OUR VISION To be a charitable institution that embodies the concept of Airmen helping Airmen – that is embraced by Airmen and those who support Airmen. Air Force Aid Society has been named a 4-Star Charity for four consecutive years. This is the highest rating possible by Charity Navigator, the nation’s leading independent evaluator of charitable organizations. Air Force Aid Society received this high rating as a result of our fiscal efficiency and transparency. AFAS.ORG / 2018 Annual Report 76 YEARS OF SERVICE FOR EVERY $1 DONATED, AIR FORCE AID SOCIETY PROVIDES $3 TO HELP AIRMEN. The Air Force Aid Society (AFAS) is the official charity of the U.S. Air Force (USAF) and has been meeting the unique needs for the Total Force and their families, as well as Air Force widows and widowers since 1942. Older than the USAF itself, AFAS traces its roots back to the great five-star General Henry “Hap” and Mrs. Bee Arnold. The Arnolds envisioned an organization that embodied the ideal of Airmen helping Airmen, which still drives our mission today. On March 9, 1942, the Arnolds created Army Air Corps Relief Society. With the establishment of the USAF on September 18, 1947, the organization was renamed the Air Force Aid Society to provide financial support for the families of Airmen who lost their lives during World War II. -
The American Civil War: a War of Logistics
THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR: A WAR OF LOGISTICS Franklin M. Welter A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2015 Committee: Rebecca Mancuso, Advisor Dwayne Beggs © 2015 Franklin M. Welter All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Rebecca Mancuso, Advisor The American Civil War was the first modern war. It was fought with weapons capable of dealing death on a scale never before seen. It was also the first war which saw the widespread use of the railroad. Across the country men, materials, and supplies were transported along the iron rails which industrial revolution swept in. Without the railroads, the Union would have been unable to win the war. All of the resources, men, and materials available to the North mean little when they cannot be shipped across the great expanse which was the North during the Civil War. The goals of this thesis are to examine the roles and issues faced by seemingly independent people in very different situations during the war, and to investigate how the problems which these people encountered were overcome. The first chapter, centered in Ohio, gives insight into the roles which noncombatants played in the process. Farmers, bakers, and others behind the lines. Chapter two covers the journey across the rails, the challenges faced, and how they were overcome. This chapter looks at how those in command handled the railroad, how it affected the battles, especially Gettysburg, and how the railroads were defended over the course of the war, something which had never before needed to be considered. -

Lee, Thomas Jackson, and James Longstreet composed the leadership of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia for the majority of the Civil War. Yet Longstreet, unlike Lee and Jackson, was not given appropriate postwar recognition for his military achievements. Throughout American history, critics have argued that Longstreet had a flawed character, and a mediocre military performance which included several failures fatal to the Confederacy, but this is not correct. Analysis of his prewar life, his military career, and his legacy demonstrate that Longstreet’s shortcomings were far outweighed by his virtues as a person and his brilliance as a general. -
