For Trenchard, the Dominions needed direction from London, and he felt their air units would become a key component of imperial defense.

Figure 7.3. Air Marshal Sir Hugh Trenchard. Trenchard is best known for the strategic bombing theories that he developed after World War I. In the immediate aftermath of World War I, he fought numerous political battles to maintain the independence of the Royal Air Force from the British Army and Royal Navy. He argued that a mobile air force could defend the vast British Empire more efficiently and economically than the other services. (Photograph courtesy of the National Portrait Gallery, London)
