Dragons in Flight: The Common CBRN Lineage of the Army and Air Force

摘要

U.S. Army chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) specialists and U.S. Air Force (USAF) 3E9 emergency management specialists share a common history. From the beginning of the Chemical Warfare Service (CWS) during World War I, the organization fully supported the fledgling U.S. Army Air Service through its evolution to the U.S. Army Air Corps (USAAC), then to the U.S. Army Air Forces (USAAF), and finally to the USAF, which was created in 1947.
