I was in the US Navy during WWII and after the war, jobs were sort of scarce so I joined the US Army Air Corps. Then in 1947 they decided to create the US Air Force so they gave everyone an option of gettin a discharge or becoming a member of the Air Force. I chose to be released but after a year I rejoined the US Air Force. I later got out but stayed in the Reserve and was called back for two years during the Korean War. Hope that clears things up. wrote: > > ROOTS-L Digest Volume 02 : Issue 561 > > Today's Topics: > #12 Army Air Corps or Air Force [] > Administrivia: > X-Message: #12 > Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2002 06:39:33 EDT > From: > Subject: Army Air Corps or Air Force > > Actually, the Army Air Corps was changed to Army Air Forces before Pearl > Harbor. > > See: http://www.au.af.mil/au/afhra/wwwroot/rso/birth.html > for the complete history. > > Bill Abbott >
