Lt. Thomas J. Hudner, Jr.

I saw a story on the History Channel the other day about Lt. Thomas J. Hudner. Lt. Hudner was flying a mission over North Korea when his wingman was shot down by AA fire. Lt. Hudner made an intentional wheels up crash-landing in his F4U to save him. He was awarded the Medal of Honor.

Have fun. Be safe. Happy Piloting.
