- Edward Steve Fris (1 September 1921 – 17 May 2010) was a lieutenant general in the United States Marine Corps. He served as the Director of Aviation, Headquarters Marine Corps and is considered a pioneer in the development of today's Marine Air Command and Control System (MACCS). He was commissioned during World War II and originally trained as a radar officer. Following the war, he transitioned to become a naval aviator. His radar and electrical engineering background led to his near decade long involvement with the development of the Marine Tactical Data System (MTDS). He served as the commanding officer (CO) of Marine Air Control Squadron 3 (MACS-3) for more than four years from 1961-1965 as MTDS went through operational test and evaluation. Later assignments included a tour in Vietnam as the CO of Marine Air Control Group 18 (MACG-18), time as Commanding General Marine Corps Air Bases Western Area and two years as the Director of Marine Corps Aviation. His final assignment before retirement was as the Commanding General of the Marine Corps Development and Education Command. The award given annually to the top Marine Corps Aviation Command and Control Unit is named in his honor. (en)
