The Ultimate Sacrifice
I always admired the fighter pilots of the World War II era. I first became infatuated these pilots after learning the story of my great uncle. It turned out he was a fighter pilot during the war and he sacrificed his life fighting against the Japanese.
There is one item left over from my uncle that was given to me by my great aunt three years ago on my birthday. It’s a leather bomber jacket, and I wear it everyday. I feel much closer to my heroes this way. It’s my way of paying tribute to the soldiers who died defending our country.
