He spent the rest of the war in a POW camp. After the war, after a very short time as a civilian, he rejoined the Air Force as a MSgt and flew as a flight engineer. He returned to flying as an F-84 fighter pilot and flew through the Korean War. He even flew the RB-57 Canberra with a recon squadron in VietNam. He died on Sunday 29 May 2009, aged 85.
