Unreferenced date December 2009 The Allied Expeditionary warfare Expeditionary Air Force AEAF also known as the Allied Armies Expeditionary Air Force , AAEAF was a component of the Supreme Headquarters Allied ExpeditionaryForce SHAEF which controlled the tactical air power of the Allied forces during Operation Overlord . Its effectiveness was less than optimal on two counts. It did not function as the controlling headquarters for all Allied air forces, with the strategic forces of RAF Bomber Command and the US Eighth Air Force being retained by their national command authorities until pressure from U.S. General Dwight D. Eisenhower resulted in them being placed directly under SHAEF instead of AEAF. Its commander was also not universally liked. Sir Trafford Leigh Mallory was regarded by some as being too inept for his place in the high command.
