 One benefit of the Army War College was that it brought Air Corps officers into contact with ground officers that they would later have to work closely with.Members of Kenney's class included Richard Sutherland and Stephen Chamberlain, both of whom worked with him on committees.Graduation from the Army War College was normally followed by a staff posting, and on graduation in June 1933 Kenney became an assistant to Major James E. Chaney in the Plans Division of the Office of the Chief of the Air Corps, Major General Benjamin Foulois.
