About General of the Air Force H. H. "Hap" Arnold
General "Hap" Arnold was the leading airman during World War II. Born on June 25, 1886, in Gladwyne, Pa., Henry "Hap" Arnold expanded the pilot corps by sending military officers to civilian flight schools. Arnold was a milestone aviator who has a notable list of firsts in his log book. In September 1911, he flew the first U.S. airmail; a year later, he won the first Mackay Trophy for aviation. In July 1924, he set a new speed record, 113 mph average, between Rockwell and San Francisco. He followed this feat with his second Mackay Trophy for his command of a flight of 10 Martin B-10 bombers from Bolling Field, DC, to Fairbanks, Alaska, and back. In 1938 he became chief of the Air Corps. In December 1944 he was one of four Army leaders promoted to the five-star rank of general. In May 1949 he was named General of the Air Force, the first such commission ever made.
