Chuck Yeager on Twitter: "Jan 15, 1945: My last WWII mission,I was a spare & not needed so missed the biggest battle that day: 57 enemy a/c destroyed. I led the other spare on a tour of Switzerland where we dropped our wing tanks & shot them as targets @HISTORY #aviation #USAF @USATODAY #WWII #ThirdReich"
