This visit became the genesis for the Gathering of Eagles program...The first official Gathering of Eagles (then known as "Great Moments in Aviation History") was held in 1982 when a small faculty and student group was chartered to develop an aviation heritage program. This initial cadre designed a program encouraging the study of aviation history and the contributions of aviation pioneers. Fifteen distinguished aviators were invited to share their unique personal experiences through a series of teaching interviews and social events with members of the class. These legendary figures were a diverse group from many nations and services...This 3 print set " The ACSC CLASS OF 1984 " depicts the Aircraft and the Legendary men that flew them and is signed by no fewer than 24 Aviation Legends...The first plate 1 of 3 is signed by : Douglas A .Campbell , John F.
