Meet Ken Glass - a photo on Flickriver

Meet Ken Glass

Meet 94-year-old Ken Glass, from Oxford, Ohio.

Glass flew 35 combat missions in the Pacific off the U.S.S. Hornet (CV-12) while attached to Torpedo Two (VT-2).

Glass survived an emergency landing during a cross-country flight, a ditching immediately after takeoff due to a rough-running engine, the rigors of wartime flying and the ever-dangerous evolution of operating the U.S. Navy's largest carrier-based aircraft of World War II.
