Sherman Army Airfield
Sherman Army Airfield is an airport located at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, in Leavenworth County, Kansas.〔 Although the airport is within the confines of a United States Army Post, it has agreement with the city of Leavenworth, Kansas to permit civilian use at all hours.〔(Sherman Army Airfield ) page at City of Leavenworth website〕
It derives its codes from Fort Leavenworth. While many facilities at Fort Leavenworth are named for the Command and General Staff College founder William Tecumseh Sherman the airfield is actually named for an early Army Aviation pioneer Major William Carrington Sherman (1888–1927) who died in 1927 at Ft Leavenworth while there as an instructor.〔http://books.google.com/books?id=PKWHgx3rBwIC&pg=PA119&lpg=PA119&dq=William+C.+Sherman+Fort+Leavenworth&source=bl&ots=3umB74Wsml&sig=-fVwYNgFR4F5BSYsDb_9SYV7TeI&hl=en&ei=SrHfTt3wBqnm0QHnjtnHBw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=9&ved=0CGYQ6AEwCA#v=onepage&q=William%20C.%20Sherman%20Fort%20Leavenworth&f=false〕 William Sherman wrote the Army's first airplane tactics manual (in 1921) -- "Air Tactics" as well as several other army airplane manuals and histories.〔http://crm.cr.nps.gov/archive/23-02/23-02-11.pdf〕〔http://www.au.af.mil/au/awc/awcgate/au/sherman.pdf〕〔
