When General Chuck recently went for a supersonic ride in an F-15 Eagle, the USAF crew asked what he thought of the flight.
His reply was "It ain't better than sex." His beloved "Glamourous Glennis" passed away in 1990 after 45 years of marriage. General Yeager re-married in 2003. His second wife, Victoria, was 41 years old at that time. I would say his opinion is beyond repute.
I hope the Thunderbirds overfly his ceremony and right after the gun salute, the "missing man' Pilot plugs his 'burner and goes supersonic in the vertical over Chuck's burial place. Broken winders be damned! On last sonic boom for Honor.
At last, Chuck will get his picture on the wall of The Happy Bottom Riding Club. (Except it burned down in November of 1953.)
The C/O at NAS (R) White Oak has ordered the flag to be flown at half staff until after General Yeager's service. The Officers and Men of the Station solemnly salute the passing of a National Treasure, A gifted Pilot and an honorable man.
Even if he was a Blue-Suiter.
