Colonel Don passed away...

I saw it posted on another forum that Don Blakelsee, who lead the 4th FG through much of WW2 has passed away at the age of 90.
Thought he might live forever. One heckuva fighter pilot and leader.

This is part of the reason I keep playing AH. To honor their memories as they pass. By doing so we keep the era alive in our generation and those to come, so the sacrifice that was made during the, hopefully, Last World War, will never be forgotten.
