Captain Joe Foss leads the F4F
Wildcats of VMF-121 back to Henderson Field after a day of desperate
fighting against the Japanese in the skies over the steaming
jungles of Guadalcanal in November 1942. It would be another
three months before the island was finally secured, during which
time Joe Foss would achieve an astonishing 26 victories to become
the first American pilot to equal WW1 Ace Eddie Rickenbacker’s
score. |
