February 14, 1910 d. on December 9, 1958) was a U.S. Army cavalry officer who served as the Commanding General of Fort Rucker, Alabama, and as Commandant of the Army Aviation School in 1957–1958.

He was en route to Matteson Range to observe a firepower rehearsal in preparation for a full-scale armed helicopter display.
