Wow - 409 combat missions! Think about that incredible record of experience. He must have been one of the best to survive that long in that environment. Charles McGee - Hero indeed.

A true patriot. Deserved every award that was bestowed on him and much more. One of the greatest among us.

I have seen documentaries outlining some of his exploits and everything that they said African-Americans couldn't do in wartime was proven wrong by the Tuskegee airmen. His appointment to Brigadier should not have been honorary, in my opinion. He EARNED that rank.
