"Bud" Mahurin, fighter pilot in WWII (both theaters) and Korea, has passed away at age 91.
He flew P-47's, P-51's, and F86's. Credited with 20.75 kills. Shot down twice, escaped once successfully. Held as a POW by the Koreans well past the end of the war.
Fair skies and tailwinds to a true hero.... -Skip
