HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE AIR FORCE! And Happy Cheeseburger Day, too!!

/ by

Created by the National Security Act after World War II, the Air Force turns 67 years old today! Happy birthday and THANK YOU!!!

And thank you to Lionel Sternberger, who in 1926 at the age of 16, invented the cheeseburger at his father’s Pasadena California sandwich shop ‘The Rite Spot’.*

*there are other claims to the invention of the cheeseburger, but I believe Lionel! Whoever’s responsible, THANK YOU!!
