General Officer Commander in Chief Anti-Aircraft Command
Since the blue jobs were out flying their vintage aircraft over Ottawa today, I would like to sit for a chat, tea and scones with General Sir Frederick Alfred Pile (AKA Tim 1884 1976).
It would be interesting to find out how he was able to put together his command when the army was less than impressed with air defence (seems it is a tradition) and the air force was convinced it alone "ruled the skies" (seems a tradition).
