	Oscar M. Westover (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Oscar M. Westover succeeded Foulois as chief of the Air Corps, holding that position between 1935 and 1938.
		It is interesting to speculate on whether he would have played a role in the expansion of the Air Corps in the years leading up to Pearl Harbor, or if, like Malin Craig in the Army, he would have been shunted aside just as the crisis approached.
		There is no biography of Westover, but Frank Faulkner includes a chapter on him in his handbook,Westover: Man, Base and Mission (Springfield: Hungry Hill Press, 1990).

		IN JANUARY 1936, Brig Gen Henry H. Arnold was transferred back to Washington, D.C. Maj Gen Oscar F. Westover had taken over as chief of the Air Corps and had convinced Gen Malin Craig, chief of staff, that he needed Arnold as his assistant.
		Westover, who had opposed separation from the Army throughout his career, and Arnold, perhaps having learned a lesson about bucking the system at too high a level, agreed that remaining part of the Army held definite advantages for the Air Corps, particularly in the area of logistical support.
		As was all too frequent an occurrence in these early years of aviation, a tragic aircraft accident took the life of General Westover on 21 September 1938.
