High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Air Marshal Sir Alister Murray Murdoch KBE, CB (9 December 1912 29 November 1984) was a senior commander in the Royal Australian Air Force. He served as Chief of the Air Staff (CAS) from 1965 to 1969. During World War II, Murdoch commanded No. 221 Squadron RAF and held senior staff positions in the RAAF. His post-war appointments included Air Officer Commanding (AOC) Training Command from 1953 to 1955, Deputy Chief of the Air Staff from 1958 to 1959, and AOC Operational Command from 1962 to 1965. In 1954, Murdoch headed a programme to determine future aircraft purchases; his recommendations included the C-130 Hercules, considered one of the most important acquisitions in RAAF history. His term as CAS coincided with increased commitment to the Vietnam War, and he came into conflict with Australian Army commanders over the employment of helicoptors in battle. Murdoch was the fourth in a series of CASs who had been cadets at the Royal Military College, Duntroon, and as such was described by Air Chief Marshal Sir Frederick Scherger as "the last of the professionals".
