So, not an ace, and only two victories. The only other pilot with victories in WW2 and Vietnam that I am aware of is Robin Olds.

Enjoy!

Say Frank, I know Mahurin & Gabreskie (and probably others but my mind is drawing a blank) downed aircraft in WW2 & Korea & Robin Olds did so in WW2 & Vietnam. Has anybody succeeded in scoring a vic/vics in all three wars?
