  My Dad, Lt. Col. Ralph Osborn, who served in the US Army Air Corps in WWII at Port Moresby, joined the USAF, became a meteorologist, and retired in 1961. You probably crossed paths getting a forecast! Also, you are one of my heroes. Thank you for Yeager: An Autobiography!

  I’m glad the USAF got your accomplishment in their history books and not the Army. #AimHigh
