We lost another - RIP, George
George Vujnovich. Not many have heard of him, but he initiated and orchestrated a rescue of downed airmen that was the most successful rescue of WWII.
If you haven't read The Forgotten 500, I recommend it most highly - it is a remarkable history on many counts.
RIP - and thanks, George.
