Bogardus Snowden Cairns (February 14, 1910 – December 9, 1958) was a U.S. Army cavalry officer who served as the Commanding General of Fort Rucker, Alabama, and as Commandant of the Army Aviation School in 1957–1958. He was one of the key developers of the armed helicopter and the first to formally apply cavalry doctrine to Air Mobility. After his death in a helicopter crash while serving at Fort Rucker, Ozark Field was renamed Cairns Army Airfield in January 1959. He was en route to Matteson Range to observe a firepower rehearsal in preparation for a full-scale armed helicopter display.
