LeMay didn't hesitate to give his troops a bad time, but nobody else better bother with them....

I remember a SAC 2ND Lt. raising hell in an Air Transport facility saying if they couldn't get their damn planes off the ground, SAC would bring their own transports in and get the job done.

He'd fly into a SAC Field in an unmarked plane just to see how good security was...Lord help the base CO if he wasn't met by armed MPs.....

He was the one who pulled the guns off B-29s so they could haul more incendiaries into Tokyo and had them do it at low level.....

.....Westy.....

Well, he looks sassy enough. You made me curious of him, so I looked him up. Lordy, I had forgotten that the Air Force was not officially formed until after WWII.
