General Hap Arnold, along with Dr. Theodore von Karman and a few others,
were responsible for the creation of Arnold Engineering Development
Center, to get the United States capable of performing state of the art
aeronautical and engine research. A few years ago I received an award
plaque that contained a caricature of Gen. Arnold by noted cartoonist
Milton Caniff. I have always thought of it as a beautiful example of
his work. Perhaps a few of you are old enough to recall his "Terry and
the Pirates" and "Steve Canyon" comic strips.
