First anniversary yearbook of the 913th Engineers Air Force Headquarters Company of the Army Air Force School of Applied Tactics in Orlando, Florida. The company was first established at Mitchel Field, New York on November 1, 1942. After the addition of a cadre from the 908th Engineer Air Force Headquarters Company of Hamilton Field, California, the company resettled in South Camp of the Fighter Command School in Florida on December 1, 1942. The 913th soon absorbed the 895th Engineer Company and Captain Robert B. Kirk took charge. The company was responsible for supplementing the engineer staff of the air force and performing operational and training missions.
