John,

This man is an embodiment of a generation where everyday men and women were true heroes. I hope that future generations will one day return to an understanding of what it takes for a "society" to truly exist. Thanks for sharing! :salute:

Try to get hold of Bader's biography "Reach for the Sky" by Paul Brickhill. There was also the classic film of the same name made in the 50's starring Kenneth More.
