Can you believe we’ve only had our United States Air Force as a separate and equivalent branch of military service since September 18, 1947? We have friends who were born that same year and they still look young to me! But we’ve had fighter planes and air coverage as a nation far longer than that. I learned the National Security Act of 1947 signed by President Harry S. Truman that created the Air Force from the Army Air Forces.
Wise people envisioned separate operations required to promote and sustain safety, on land, in the air and at sea (Army, Air Force, and Navy). Two new positions were created at the same time: a Secretary of Defense and a Secretary of the Air Force.
Daily, we hear or read the names and titles of those in military service whose job it is to safeguard our security at home and then be ready at a moment’s notice to travel to protect our service personnel abroad. Their common denominator is courage. Who heads the Air Force today? Surprised to learn SecAF is Deborah Lee James, with responsibility for “660,000 active-duty Guard, Reserve and civilian Airmen and their families?” Her budget? $139 billion dollars.
To today’s young recruits and enlistees, it appears exciting. Who wouldn’t want to serve their country, climbing into an F-16 fighter jet, leaving from an Air Force base where the best mechanics in the country have gone over every single bolt, and engineers have spent hundreds of hours studying the operation, performance, and quality of your engine specs? It takes hundreds of people to launch that plane and keep it airborne, safely, to defend all of us.
Early days weren’t as glamorous, during early wartime years. Records show there were 52 types bomber aircraft, by different manufacturers, that first protected our country. Some were called “flying fortresses,” but the planes carried “mavericks,” willing to risk, dive bomb, and escape the enemy, every time they were ordered into the air protect our safety.
Did you know records show Texas A&M has almost 600 Air Force cadets and we have here what’s considered the “largest AFROTC Detachment and Senior Military College in the Nation”?
In our own Brazos Valley, we have so many who have served, or who are serving, our country in the United States Air Force. On the wall of the beautiful monument in Veterans Park in College Station, you’ll find each one of these names with USAF after their names. Please take a moment and scan this list and see how many of your friends and neighbors you know are here and maybe you never even knew which branch of the military they’ve served. The names in capital letters are as recorded on the wall, with the family preference indicated. Whether or not they are all familiar to you, each one of them is an absolute treasure to our community. Fortunately, the Brazos Valley has always been “home” to many of us, so we know our neighbors. The next time you see one of your friends or neighbors, listed here in the USAF, please take a moment to thank them for their service to our country. Happy birthday to the United States Air Force, and may God bless each of you here.
