San Antonio Aviation Cadet Center, Texas—Eager to get behind the controls of a primary trainer for the first time in their roles as aviation cadets, another large class of Uncle Sam’s potential fighters of the air has been advanced from the preflight school of the San Antonio Aviation Cadet Center.
The cadets will undergo training in the air at primary, basic, and advanced flying fields before winning the coveted wings and commissions of flying officers.
Those advanced from the preflight school included 126 from Iowa, one from Estherville, Aviation Cadet Vernon H. Anderson, 1127 1st Ave. So.
