Air Force Day
August 1, 2022
Air Force Day is a celebration of airpower in the aftermath of WW II. This observance is slightly complicated due to the nature of American air power at the time, but the designation of Air Force Day was an important step toward the recognition of United States air superiority in both Europe and Asia at the time.
Air Force Day was last observed on August 1, 1949. The Air Force Birthday is celebrated on September 18th each year.
