摘要

On Dec. 28, 1943, Lt. Gen.CarlA.-Tooey" Spaatz took off from North Africa on his command airplane, a B-17 named Boops for his daughter Carla, age 11. After a year in the Mediterranean theater, Spaatz was taking over as commander, US Strategic Air Forces in Europe. He was the personal choice of US Army Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower. "Wouldn't take anyone else," Gen. Henry H. "Hap" Arnold noted after a private meeting with the newly selected supreme allied commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force. When it was all over, Eisenhower wrote, "On every succeeding day of almost three years of active war I had new reasons for thanking the gods of war and the War Department for giving me Tooey' Spaatz." But that was in the future. As 1943 drew to a close, the long-planned invasion of France was barely six months away, and the Allies were behind in their most immediate task: winning air superiority in Europe by battering down the Luftwaffe. The task fell to Spaatz.
