    Doolittle and Eaker said he was the greatest air commander of all time. LeMayBy Walter J. Boyne here has never been anyone like T Gen. Curtis E. LeMay. Within the Air Force, he was extraordinarily successful at every level of com- mand, from squadron to the entire service. He was a brilliant pilot, preeminent navigator, and excel- lent bombardier, as well as a daring combat leader who always flew the toughest missions. A master of tactics and strategy, LeMay not only played key World War II roles in both Europe and the Pacific but also pushed Strategic Air Command to the pinnacle of great- ness and served as the architect of victory in the Cold War. He was the greatest air commander of all time, determined to win as quickly as possible with the minimum number of casualties. At the beginning of World War II, by dint of hard work and train- ing, he was able to mold troops and equipment into successful fighting units when there were inadequate resources with which to work. Under his leadership—and with support produced by his masterful relations with Congress—he gained such enor- During World War II, Gen. Curtis E.

  • John Edgar Peabody
    Jack R. Miller (192. – 1943) The closest reference to a “Jack R. Miller” whose name appears in Memorial Park in Chula Vista that has yet been found was a “John R. Miller” who listed his home of record as the state of California. The information found on this WWII veteran is therefore furnished. John R. Miller was from California and was a 2nd Lieutenant in the USAAF. His serial number was O-680481. He was assigned to the 525th Bomber Squadron of the 379th Bomber Group (Heavy). On November 29, 1943, he was listed as Missing in Action (MIA), and his name appears on the Missing in Action and Buried at Sea tablets at the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, Netherlands. A brief history of the 525th Bomber Squadron follows: (Reference USAF History WWII for 29 November 1943): EUROPEAN THEATER OF OPERATIONS STRATEGIC OPERATIONS (Eighth Air Force): VIII Bomber Command Mission 140. 154 of 360 B-17's hit the port of Bremen, Germany and targets of opportunity in the area at 1429-1450 hours; unfavorable cloud conditions and malfunction of blindbombing equipment cause 200+ B-17's to abort; they claim 15-11-10 Luftwaffe aircraft; 13 B-17's are lost, 3 damaged beyond repair and 43 damaged; casualties are 2 KIA, 13 WIA and 131 MIA. The B-17's are escorted by 38 P-38's and 314 P-47's; they claim 15-4-6 Luftwaffe aircraft; 7 P-38's and 9 P-47's are lost; 1 P-47 is damage beyond repair and another damaged; casualties are 1 WIA and 16 MIA.
