    life. I am prepared to give my life in their
    defense.
  • --Article 2 I will never surrender of my own
    free will. If in command, I will never surrender
    the members of my command while they still have
    the means to resist.

10
Next Two
  • --Article 3 If I am captured, I will continue
    to resist by all means available. I will make
    every effort to escape and aid others to escape.
    I will accept neither parole nor special favors
    from the enemy.
  • --Article 4 If I become a prisoner of war, I
    will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will
    give no information, nor take part in any action
    which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am
    senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey
    the lawful orders of those appointed over me and
    will back them up in every way.

11
Last Two
  • --Article 5 When questioned, should I become a
    prisoner of war, I am required to give my name,
    rank, service number, and date of birth. I will
    evade answering further questions to the utmost
    of my ability. I will make no oral or written
    statements disloyal to my country and its allies
    or harmful to their cause.
  • --Article 6 I will never forget that I am an
    American, fighting for freedom, responsible for

    levels of war, simultaneously
  • Precision air weapons have redefined the meaning
    of mass
  • Air Powers unique characteristics necessitate
    that it be centrally controlled by airmen
  • Technology and Air Power are integrally and
    synergistically related
  • air power includes not only military assets, but
    an aerospace industry and commercial aviation

High Flight By John Gillespie Magee, Jr.
  • Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
  • And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings
  • Sunward Ive climbed and joined the tumbling
    mirth
  • Of sun-split clouds and done a hundred things
  • You have not dreamed of wheeled and soared and
    swung
  • High in the sunlit silence
  • Hovring there, Ive chased the shouting wind
    along and
  • Flung my eager craft through footless halls of
    air
  • Up, up the long delirious, burning blue
  • Ive topped the wing-swept heights with easy
    grace
  • Where never lark, or even eagle flew
  • And, while with silent, lifting mind Ive trod
  • The high untrespassed sanctity of space
  • Put out my hand and touched the face of God

29
Taps
