Re: Colonel Donald James Matthew Blakeslee - September 11, 1917 - September 3, 2008 - The Greatest American Fighter Pilot Has Passed Away
KB,
It is unfortunate how soon the American media and public forget the courage, sacrifice and contribution all these fine men made to America. Don Blakeslee was in a class all his own with few peers. He will be missed by those that know the price of freedom and the courage it took too defend it at 30,000 feet.
