<p>[QUOTE=&quot;miedbe7, post: 1668562, member: 33919&quot;]From the coin program, I choose Hap Arnold as my entry.&nbsp; He was tough as nails, yet competent enough to be an effective leader of the armed forces.&nbsp; But he was also a pragmatist who understood the need to develop new technology, designs, strategies, etc. to keep up with what he witnessed what other countries were doing with airplanes, like France in particular, during the interwar period.&nbsp; Without Hap&#039;s foresight, the US Air Corps (and by extension a future, free Europe) might not have had the benefit of such iconic planes as the B-17 at their disposal to fight in two expansive theaters of WWII.</p><p><br /></p><p>PS - If you were to ask my favorite 5-star General, without the coin program to choose from, it&#039;d actually be a 6-star General/General of the Armies.&nbsp; And that man would be George Washington, ftw. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
