I was just in D.C. with my Dad for a reunion of his South Pacific fighter squadron from WWII so I got to hear stories from guys that strapped P-39's, 47's and 51's to their butts. Absolutely ordinary folks put into an extraordinary situation. Many of these guys and their wives are in very good health and just great folks to be around.
We took a bus trip to the Air and Space Museum and in the room dedicated to the Wright brother's, I came upon the display of Orville's mandolin.
