    This is probably en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Foulois
    'Benjamin Delahauf Foulois (December 9, 1879 – April 25, 1967) was a United States Army general who learned to fly the first military planes purchased from the Wright brothers. He became the first military aviator as an airship pilot, and achieved numerous other military aviation "firsts". He led strategic development of the Air Force in the United States.'

    His wikipedia entry indicates that he was commissioned as a second lieutenant on July 9, 1901 and a first lieutenant on April 30, 1908.
