Air Force Association

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Air Force Association (AFA) is an independent, nonprofit, civilian organization promoting public understanding of aerospace power. It publishes the monthly Air Force Magazine promoting aerospace power and the interests of the United States Air Force.

The Association's first national president was General James H. Doolittle, an aviation pioneer and recipient of the Medal of Honor. In 1948 Doolittle took a year's leave of absence from Shell Oil, where he was a vice president, to establish AFA chapters nationwide.
