Army Air Corps Heritage
The Army Air Corps (AAC) was the aerial warfare service component of the United States Army between 1926 and 1941, and the direct predecessor of the United States Army Air Forces (1941-1947) and ultimately the United States Air Force. The AAC was established on July 2, 1926, when the Air Corps Act reorganized the Army’s aviation branch, giving it greater autonomy and recognition as a combat arm of the Army.
Aviation Pioneers
Army Air Corps aviators and ground crews pioneered military aviation during a critical period of technological advancement. From the development of strategic bombing doctrine to advances in fighter tactics and aircraft design, the AAC laid the foundation for American air power. These aviation pioneers flew aircraft like the P-40 Warhawk, B-17 Flying Fortress, and P-51 Mustang, establishing the traditions of courage, innovation, and excellence that continue in today’s Air Force.
World War II Service
When the United States entered World War II, the Army Air Corps was redesignated as the Army Air Forces on June 20, 1941. AAC-trained aviators, bombardiers, navigators, and ground crews went on to serve with distinction in every theater of World War II, conducting strategic bombing campaigns, air superiority missions, close air support, and airlift operations that were critical to Allied victory.
