  • Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg April 30, 1948–June 29, 1953 Portrait By
    Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg April 30, 1948–June 29, 1953 Portrait by Francis Henry Beaugureau OYT S. VANDENBERG was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on January 24, 1899. His father, William Collins Vandenberg, was president of a bookbinding company. HHis uncle, Arthur H. Vandenberg, went from newspaper publishing in Grand Rapids to prominence as a Republican member of the U.S. Senate. His family moved to Lowell, Massachusetts, in 1910 and Hoyt participated in the gamut of high school sports—baseball, football, hockey, golf, and track. He had an avid interest in scouting, ultimately becoming an Eagle Scout. His experience at the Plattsburg Junior Camp at Plum Island, New York—a sort of military school for the wealthy—in the summer of 1916 instilled a desire for a military career. Political connections and a year of hard work at Columbian Preparatory School in Washington, D.C., earned him an appointment to West Point, where he graduated and was commissioned a second lieutenant in the Air Service in 1923. After completing the Primary Flying School at Brooks Field, Texas, in 1923 and Advanced Flying School at Kelly Field, Texas, the next year, he received his first assignment with the Third Attack Group at Kelly Field and assumed command of the 90th Attack Squadron. In Texas he married Gladys Rose, whom he had met as a cadet. They had two chil- dren. In 1927 he became an instructor at the Air Corps Primary Flying School at March Field, California. From 1929 to 1931 Vandenberg was with the 6th Pursuit Squadron at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii, where he served as squadron commander for most of that period.
