Description ▲
September 1944: perched on the wing of his stricken torpedo bomber, 3,000 feet above a Pacific Ocean teeming with hostile ships, Ensign George Bush prepares to leap into destiny. One yank of his rip cord later, he is prey to a Japanese armada, intent on his capture & interrogation. The story is true. A patriotic young man volunteers for hazardous assignment, knocks out enemy war ships, & collects a pile of medals. His inspiration is his fiance, Barbara, for whom he names his plane. Discover for yourself the gallantry, conflict, & drama that molded our former President in a fascinating & insightful recollection. Over 100 photos.
