Fox news has had it on, but not as much as I think they should.

My father enlisted Aug 5 1945 in the Army Air Corps(AC Paratrooper) it remained one of the combat arms of the Army until 1947, when it was legally abolished by legislation establishing the Department of the Air Force which was establisd on 20 June 1941.
