Following its May 1945 visit to Germany to survey test facilities there, the Scientific Advisory Group, formed at the request of Gen. Henry “Hap” Arnold, the commanding general of the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War II and the U.S. Air Force’s only five-star general, submitted its findings and recommendations for the future of American aeronautical research in a report titled Toward New Horizons. This report was published in the latter part of 1945 and called for the creation of a research and development facility that could be used for the study of jet propulsion, supersonic aircraft and ballistic missiles.
