    Unreferenced date December 2009 The Allied Expeditionary warfare Expeditionary Air Force AEAF also known as the Allied Armies Expeditionary Air Force , AAEAF was a component of the Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force SHAEF which controlled the tactical air power of the Allied forces during Operation Overlord . Its effectiveness was less than optimal on two counts. It did not function as the controlling headquarters for all Allied air forces, with the strategic forces of RAF Bomber Command and the US Eighth Air Force being retained by their national command authorities until pressure from U.S. General Dwight D. Eisenhower resulted in them being placed directly under SHAEF instead of AEAF. Its commander was also not universally liked. Sir Trafford Leigh Mallory was regarded by some as being too inept for his place in the high command. It had two major components, the RAF Second Tactical Air Force and the Ninth Air Force USAAF Ninth Air Force . Each supported their own nation s Army Group. It also had operational control of the Air Defence of Great Britain , but with that organisation not being under the control of SHAEF. AEAF was dissolved after Leigh Mallory was reassigned to command RAF forces in the far east, later being killed in an air crash. Category Expeditionary units and formations ...   more details

  1. Northwestern Military and Naval Academy

    Northwestern Military Academy was founded by Harlan Page Davidson in 1888. Originally located in Highland Park, Illinois , the school was relocated to the town of Linn, Wisconsin on the south shore of Geneva Lake near the city of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin Lake Geneva in 1915 and was renamed Northwestern Military and Naval Academy NMNA . During the academy s century of operation its primary goal was to mold young men, grades 9 12, into outstanding citizens, eager and ready for higher levels of education. The institution adhered to the visions and principles of Davidson which adopted military structure and religious principles into an exceptionally sound educational program. The results were a capstone curriculum which ranked the academy as one of the most prestigious schools within the nation. Within the later years of its operation the institution decided to expand upon its enrollment spectrum and began accepting students from the 7th and 8th grade level. In 1995 the institution merged with rival school St. John s Military Academy to form St. John s Northwestern Military Academy . The Lake Geneva property was abandoned for a few years, which fell victim to vandalism and became the late night choice of neighboring kids. Before the turn of the century the property was sold to a developing company. The several acres of NMNA land has been transformed into an affluent community peppered with expensive, ostentatious homes. The Davidson Building in Lake Geneva no longer exists, but in its place is a piece of stone from the school with a plaque of remembrance. Some scenes in the motion picture Damien Omen II were filmed at the Geneva Lake campus of Northwestern Military and Naval Academy .

The membership was long restricted to military officers. This is no longer the case, but it still has a predominantly military and ex military membership. Like many London gentlemen s clubs it has also opened its membership to women. The club was once based at Cambridge House in Piccadilly and came to be known as the In and Out on account of the prominent signs on the building s vehicle entrance and exit gates. The club purchased its current premises at 4 St. James s Square in 1996, and after a programme of refurbishment it took up occupancy in 1999. The house was the London home of Nancy Astor and her husband from 1912 to 1942. In order to commemorate its previous nickname the words In and Out appear on either side of the entrance.

    The Junior Naval and Military Club was a short lived London gentlemen s club , which existed between 1870 and 1879. It was a proprietary club founded by one Captain John Elliott, in response to the heavy over subscription of existing clubs for servicemen, such as the Naval and Military Club and the Army and Navy Club . The club opened its doors in August 1870, in temporary premises at 19 Dover Street , and by June of the following year, it already had some 270 members, and its patrons and honorary members included the King Edward VII Prince of Wales , Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh , the French Emperor Napoleon III , and the latter s son Louis Napol on, Prince Imperial . Meanwhile, a sumptuous clubhouse was erected at 66 68 Pall Mall, London Pall Mall during 1874 5, being ready by the end of 1875. However, the lavish scale of the construction appears to have ruined the club s owner, with bankruptcy proceedings pending in June 1878. By the following year, the club had closed. ref http www.british history.ac.uk report.aspx?compid 40605 ref Subsequent occupants of the Pall Mall building seem to have been dogged by misfortune the tenure of both the Beaconsfield Club 1880 1887 and the Unionist Club 1888 1892 were to be short lived.
