	United States Army Air Forces - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Renamed the U.S. Army Air Forces (USAAF) on March 9, 1942, and considered a separate arm of the Army, the new USAAF had an equal "voice" with the Army and Navy.
		Several of these air forces and divisions grew out of earlier Air Corps commands—for example, the Eighth Air Force was originally called VIII Bomber Command—as the service expanded in size and organization with multiple lower tiers added and yet higher echelons such as U.S. Strategic Air Forces created to control the whole.
		The air forces and divisions were divided into a total of 91 wings, called Bombardment, Tactical Reconnaissance, Training or Composite depending on whether their primary intended role was strategic bombing, pursuit, air support, et cetera.

	Japanese War Planes Over San Francisco - 1941
		Defense arrangements were further facilitated by the fact that air force and anti-aircraft artillery units, and civilian volunteers working with the warning service, were at the outbreak of war taking positions in California for an exercise scheduled to begin on 11 December.
		In any case, the air patrols were powerless to prevent a second attack on Aruba on 19 February and additional nuisance shellings of shore installations in Puerto Rico on 2 March 1942 and of a refinery on Curacao on 19 April.
		The reluctance of AAF commanders to assign larger forces to the task resulted from their belief that such a raid as this would be employed by the enemy to divert attention from a major air task force which would hurl its planes against a really significant target.

		It is suspected that this information may been outdated since air defense radar functions were transferred from the Army Ground Forces to the Army Air Forces when the 4th Anti-Aircraft Command was transferred from the Western Defense Command and Fourth Army to the Fourth Air Force on 1 May 1944.

		Also distinctive to Mill Valley AFS was the fact that the Ground-Air Transmitter-Receiver (GATR) site was located over 100 miles away at Beale Air Force Base and was operated by the 666th Radar Squadron’s Detachment 1 from 1963 until the squadron stood down in 1980.
