Greetings, I am Hoyt Sanford Vandenberg. My journey began on January 24, 1899, shaping a path intertwined with the United States Air Force and the realm of intelligence. From commanding the Ninth Air Force during World War II to assuming leadership roles in the Air Force and Central Intelligence, my endeavors have been deeply rooted in service and strategic foresight. The honor of having Vandenberg Space Force Base named after me reflects a legacy of commitment to national security and advancement in air power.
