“I could be mis-remembering, but I think Lindbergh even flew on a few combat missions. Not a lot, but that doesnt really matter if you stop and think about it.”

I’m not that old to remember, but I “READ” :) that Roosevelt prevented Lindbergh from being able to join the army-air core.
He still could have flown missions as a civilian, it wasn’t unheard of!
