Here's just one reason why they're called "The Greatest Generation".

Mr. Earl Robinsheaux, 64 mission pilot in a P38 Lightning in the middle of the Pacific Theater; still sharp as a tack and a fantastic story teller.

I saw this on YouTube and was just going to give it a brief scan ... one hour later I was still on the edge of my seat listening to this remarkable story. See if you can only listen for a few minutes, you'll be mighty glad you did.

Thank you Mr. Robinsheaux and all those who answered the call, thank you.

That was good. People had a whole different mindset back then. Not sure where it went but they definitely think different now days, most do anyways.
