Clafton.”, Recruiting stations were at Harvard University, in Boston, Massachusetts; Mineola, Long Island; and Belmont Park, Long Island (Belmont Park is most known for its racetrack but it also has quite an early aviation history that became U.S.A.R.'s earliest members such as Glenn Curtiss and Wilber Wright of the Wright Bros). Some of the United States Aeronautical Reserve's General Board were Clifford Harmon, Chief of Staff; John Barry Ryan, Commodore; Herbert I. Satterlee, NY; John Barry Ryan, NY; Wilbur Wright, Dayton, Ohio; Glenn Curtiss, Hammondsport, NY; Cortland Field Bishop, NY; Hon. John F. Fitzgerald, Boston, MA; Charles H.

Irving Chambers of the Navy; and Major General Leonard Wood, Chief of Staff and U.S.A.R. member. "With offices not far from those of the Aero Club of America in New York City, the U.S.A.R. by November 1910 claimed no less than 3,200 members, including President Taft [U.S. President William Howard Taft]."
