Dustbowl, Great Depression, B-17 Pilot - Turned 91 Today

Post by doc540 »

Dad

tough old bird still barking orders

no college, bootstraps, never heard him complain about anything

took him ten years to work his way up from the stockroom to president of a bank

liked fast airplanes, dangerous hunts, and women

THE most honest man I've ever known.

Happy Birthday, SIR!

That's awesome. WWII pilot and stockroom-president at all, let alone 10 years.

Happy Birthday! :patriot:
