Behind the Wings

Wings sat down with CEO of the General Carl Spaatz National USAAF Museum, Keith Seiwell, to learn more about Spaatz's life and legacy.

Show Notes

General Carl A. Spaatz was the first chief of staff of the U.S. Air Force and one of the most influential people in early U.S. Air Force History. Born in Boyertown, Penn. on June 28, 1891, Spaatz had a full career, beginning with the newly formed air corps and was one of the first military aviators in the U.S. Army. In this episode, we look at Spaatz' biography, but also what his story meant for the formation of the U.S. Air Force that we know today.
