America’s Deadliest Fighter Ace – This Pilot Was FEARLESS!

Richard Bong was the top U.S. fighter ace of World War II, taking down 40 enemy planes in his P-38 Lightning. His unmatched skills earned him the Medal of Honor, and even in peacetime, he couldn’t stay out of the sky—once flying under the Golden Gate Bridge for fun! Sadly, he lost his life while test-flying a jet, but his legendary status lives on.
