The United States Air Force Academy Cadet Chapel, completed in 1962, is the distinguishing feature of the Cadet Area of Academy. The structure is a tubular steel frame of 100 identical tetrahedrons. The tetrahedrons are spaced a foot apart, creating gaps in the framework that are filled with one-inch thick colored glass.

The Cadet Chapel's principal designer and architect was Walter A. Netsch Jr. A Chicago native, Mr. Netsch studied architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, receiving his degree in 1943 and joining the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. He was 34 when he completed the design for the chapel.
