You and Linda be safe!

Thanks, Ladies, for tonight's outstanding Hall of Heroes thread. Eddie Rickenbacker was an iconic hero of my youth - greatest American fighter pilot of WWI. Did not know until reading this thread that he was awarded seven DSC's. That puts him ahead of another of my icons, Chesty Puller, by two.

I remember the lifeboat incident. Is that the same one that was the subject of the movie "Lifeboat?"

One of our greatest American Heroes!



Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
