And an evening clue. Thanks; Ernie P.
We all know German pilot Adolph Galland wrote a famous book “The First and the Last”. This question is about another pilot; one who can also claim to be The First and the Last.
What warbird aircrew member do I describe?
1. This pilot flew more than 100 combat missions.
2. His first combat mission was well before the larger war in which he fought.
3. He was there on the first day.
4. And he was there on the last day.
5. And he was there on a critical day in between.
6. When the larger war began, he already had more than ten years’ experience in aerial combat.
