Permanent Professor Biographies

Included here is a biographical sketch of each Permanent Professor, from the 1^st Robert F. McDermott appointed in 1956 through those just appointed as of this writing. Each of these short biographies attempts to illustrate the individual’s military and educational background that was the basis for their selection, identify their special contributions to the institution during their tenure, and (where appropriate) describe some of their interests and activities after retirement from active duty.

As much as possible, the biographical information was drawn from materials prepared by the individuals themselves and made public as the kind of “official” biography common across the Air Force. Many old official biographies and similar records have been archived in the McDermott Library Special Collections Branch, which is also a rich source of photographs. Unfortunately, the Library’s holdings are far from complete. Where feasible, the biographical sketches included here have been reviewed for accuracy by the subjects themselves. In other cases, close associates and some family members have provided the review. The authors of this book have made no attempt to verify the specific statements about career history, duties, degrees, awards, or the like made in each of these biographical sketches. Those facts are taken directly or indirectly from materials provided by the subject individual; we assume them to be accurate, but we do not assume responsibility for their accuracy. When we found conflicts about significant facts, we made every effort to resolve the discrepancies. In many cases we had more material than we included. We are totally responsible for decisions on what to include and what to omit.
