This! One of my uncles was a bomber pilot in World War 2, flying a fully-crewed plane over Nazi Germany loaded with gunners and munitions attacking enemy territory in a hot warzone when he was 19 years old.

What was he doing at 18? Learning to fly that plane. Laying the foundation for the Air Force that we didn't even have yet (he was in the Army Air Corps.)

>That guy was a straight-up American Bad-ass.
