Description

President Harry S. Truman and Eleanor Pool Arnold share smiles next to a plaque during the dedication of Arnold Engineering Development Center near Tullahoma, TN. The AEDC was named for General Henry "Hap" Arnold, the first General of the Air Force, and is a facility with wind tunnels dedicated to testing air and space technology. This photo is from an album of images detailing the accomplishments of the first 20 years of the AEDC, sent to former president Truman by General Jessup D. Lowe.
