Bud Anderson, the last World War II ‘triple ace,’ dies at 102

"Anderson shot down 16 German planes in World War II, flew bombing missions in Vietnam and served as a test pilot alongside Chuck Yeager. "

"He served alongside fellow fighter pilot legend Chuck Yeager during World War II. The two were close friends and would both serve as military test pilots after the war. "

Yeager  and Anderson -- the real meaning of "the right stuff". :usaflag:
