...and never asked for a handout

Thank you for your service!

My father trained as a navigator in the Army Air Corps but left in 1946. Still can’t imagine how you did all this with paper, pencil, visual telemetry - especially at night.

General Yeager. Thank you for all you have done for aviation and this nation. Thank you for being a real American Hero.

You're older than the Air Force. Quite a feat.

You should have walked on the moon.

My father became part of the newly created USAF on that very day too! (Among other things, he went on to help stand up Amarillo Air Force base, when the Cold War was in full swing.)

My father did the same thing and was based in Brazil during the war.

An exciting time to be alive. Thanks for your service and contribution General. We appreciate Glamorous Glennis too!
