The Air And Space Power Journal family mourns the loss of Mr. Almerisio "Al" Lopes, longtime editor of Air and Space Power Journal-Portuguese (ASPJ-P), who passed away on 14January 2008. A native of Brazil, Al later became a US citizen and in 1974 began working as a translator for the Brazilian edition of Military Review, the professional journal of the US Army. In 1978 he took charge as editor of Military Review's Brazilian edition, a position he held until 1989 when he became editor of ASPJ-P. He was an exceedingly meticulous editor who spared no effort to ensure that his journal brought the best cutting-edge scholarship to his international audience.
