  Lewis H. Brereton - Biocrawler
Brereton graduated from the US Naval Academy in 1911 and in 1913 was one of the first graduates of the Signal Corps Aviation School.
However Brereton was over-ruled by General Douglas MacArthur and FEAF was consequently largely destroyed on the ground.
In August 1944 Brereton was appointed to command the First Allied Airborne Army and retained this post until the end of the war in Europe.

 AmericanHeritage.com / World War II General
Brereton had little patience for high-altitude bombing and insisted on a lowlevel attack.
By early 1944 he was in command of the air forces charged with supporting the D-day invasion, only he didn’t think training for the complexities of air-ground cooperation was really necessary, and over this and other issues he quarreled importantly with Field Marshal Montgomery and General Bradley.
When Bradley’s army tried its breakout from Normandy, Brereton was in command of Operation Cobra, air strikes that killed Gen. Leslie McNair and a hundred other American soldiers in one of the costliest friendly fire incidents of the war.

 Print Article: New footage emerges of Hawks-Bombers brawl
Today proved too short for AFL investigations officer Rick Lewis to complete his probe into the bloody punch-up at the MCG involving almost every player.
Despite seven players being interviewed today, new television footage emerging and videotape of the brawl already the worse for wear being watched repeatedly, no further charges were added to the five already laid.
Brereton, now a Hawthorn director, has been accused of firing up Hawks players at halftime by telling them not to be physically intimidated by the Bombers.

Lewis Hyde Brereton was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in 1890.
What had been described as a breakdown in communications with MacArthur's Headquarters enabled the enemy to catch Brereton's Luzon-based B-17s on the ground and the bulk of his force was destroyed.
Major Brereton, together with an observer, voluntarily and pursuant to a request for special mission, left his airdrome, crossed the enemy lines over Lironville, and proceeded to Thiaucourt.
