"Is that a man?"

I got this a few years ago at the Reno Air Races. It's a Witcoff.

They don't make 'em any finer.
The last of an era of true honor and integrity.

Saw him flying the XB-51 at an airshow in Detroit.  Flew it like a fighter, of course, made Martin proud, I think.

I saw him fairly close up once during the Edwards AFB Open House in 1997. He was walking through the crowd after having done a commemorative Mach Busting in a F-15 for the show. But he wasn’t exactly stopping to talk and chat at that moment. The Air Force truly treated him like living legend that he was at that time, their rock star. I’ve seen more stars on generals and admirals with less fuss around them by their service.

A great life. The man lived it to the fullest.
