RIP Chuck Yeager...a true hero and a stand-up guy in every sense. The meaning of the word "Hero" has been diluted quite a bit in recent years, but General Yeager was the real deal. I don't usually react that much when I hear of someone's passing that I don't know personally, but I'll admit to getting a bit misty today when I heard about this.

If you haven't already, read his autobiography. His exploits in one lifetime would've been enough to make any 20 other guys look pretty good.
