Colonel Henry Harley Arnold was known as having a permanent smile on his face. By the 1920s that smile would earn him the nickname of Happy soon shortened to Hap .

Arnold graduated from the U.S. Military Academy, West Point in 1907. In April 1911, he took the difficult Ordnance Department exams and renewed his offer to fly for the army. After completing training with the Wrights Brothers course, Arnold received license number 29 and became one of two active pilots in the U.S. Army.

This 38 page booklet tells of Arnold s military life accomplishments and ranks to Lt. General and covers the span of his life from June, 1886, through his death in January 1950.

This booklet is part of the Air Force Fiftieth Anniversary Commemorative Edition.
