Former U.S. President and U.S. Naval Aviator George H.W. Bush (Bush Sr.) having qualified at the age of 18, was commissioned an Ensign in the USNR on June 9, 1943, just 3 days before his 19th birthday, after completing the 10-month naval aviation course.
Bush was the youngest overall Naval Aviator in WWII up to that date; just over a month later, on July 16, 1943, Chuck Downey was also commissioned as an Ensign, making him the youngest Naval Aviator of WWII, at 18yrs, 11 months, 14 days old.
