President Bush (Senior)
George Bush was a fighter pilot in World War 2. And JF Kennedy was a naval officer during that war.
George H.W. Bush served as a naval aviator during World War II and flew torpedo bombers in the Pacific Theater. He enlisted in the Navy at the age of 18 and became one of the youngest pilots in the service. Bush flew several combat missions and was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for his bravery.
Were on board the Saratoga, out of Honolulu(22June 1942. Flew their planes off the carrier to Midway. My Dad was one of the pilots.
Kamikaze pilots were Japanese fighter pilots in World War II who flew their planes (usually Mitsubishi Zero fighters) laden with explosives into enemy ships.
George H. W. Bush ; he flew a TBF Avenger which was a torpedo-bomber .
"Spitfires" were the main "fighter" planes. "Hurricanes" were important too, particularly during the "Battle of Britain". There were several other fighter planes too. There were also several types of "bombers" and other planes.
The Italians flew the first airplanes in combat in 1911.
Bush Sr. flew an Avenger TORPEDO bomber; not a fighter. USN Fighters were: Wildcats, Hellcats, Bearcats, and Corsairs. Bush Jr. flew an F-102 Delta Dagger jet intercepter with the Texas Air National Guard. Yes, the F-102 flew combat missions in Vietnam; 14 were lost there; one in aerial combat with a NVAF MiG-21.
Kamikaze pilots in World War 2 were Japanese fighter pilots who took drugs (usually) then flew suicide missions. They would load their planes with explosives and deliberately crash their planes into American battle ships and whatnot, viewing it as a personal sacrifice for the emperor.
