Fellow forum members:
My good friend and former high school teacher Jefferson Deblanc, who was a Congressional Medal of Honor recipient, passed away Thanksgiving day. Here are couple of interesting links. Please read:

You may want to view a re-creation of his dog fight in the Pacific when he was shot down and captured. Here is a link to that video:

He will be missed by family and friends. Your prayers will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike
