Air Force Song
In 1938, Liberty magazine sponsored a contest for a spirited,
enduring musical composition to become the official Army Air Corps song. Of 757 scores
submitted, Robert Crawford’s was selected by a committee of Air Force wives. The song
(informally known as "The Air Force Song" but now formally titled "The U.S.
Air Force") was officially introduced at the Cleveland Air Races on September 2,
1939. Fittingly, Crawford sang in its first public performance. Full
