1964 Press Photo Air Force Chief of Staff Curtis LeMay, New York - noo42223

NY-Air Force Chief of Staff Curtis F. LeMay was able to get an appointment to West Point and worked his way through Ohio State University. The blunt, unsmiling perfectionist says, "Maybe that is good, because if you start following the book you tie yourself to the past." LeMay has been crusading for a mixed force of bombers and missiles against the missile-oriented policies of Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara.
