Glossary This work was part of the 50th anniversary of the independence of the United States Air Force and was an occasion to reflect on the application of American air power in both peace and war. Foreword by Richard Hallion, the Air Force Historian. From an on-line posting of an obituary: "Ron Dick, 76, a Royal Air Force officer who served during the 1980s at the British Embassy in Washington and who later wrote a five-volume series about aviation history, died...at his home in Fredericksburg. Mr. Dick was an RAF air vice marshal, the rank equivalent to a two-star general in the U.S. military, and he served as air attache and then as head of the British defense staff in the United States. He flew 60 types of aircraft, an unusually high number. He flew fighters, bombers and acrobatic and historic aircraft during his 38 years with the RAF, and he piloted U.S. planes as the top British officer in the United States. He was a flight instructor and examiner and served as an exchange flight commander with a U.S. Air Force nuclear strike squadron. In 1983, he flew a restored B-17G bomber from California to England for the RAF museum."
