P-51 Ace Brings Down German Bomber

That is wild!

Bud Anderson is a true American hero. His courage and skill in WWII as a triple ace pilot are legendary. Salute to one of the finest airmen of the Greatest Generation!

Aviation legend right here and flew experimental aircraft for years

Passed away last yr at 102. He and Chuck Yeager remained pals in Auburn northern Ca -

They were sent to Germany after we were Attacked by The Japanese Navy! That was groomed, helped to prepare Internationally and let to Attack to draw The United States into WW2!!! Yamamoto went to Military School in The United States! These fighter pilots were giving Air cover for Allied Bombers to Bomb German and Polish Civilizations. While the main Enslaved German army was sent to Invade Slovik, Baltik and African Countries by The Allied Forces also. That Russia ended up ruling over immediately after until The Soviet Union fell apart in the 1980s, marked by the fall of the Berlin Wall. These pilots were fighting the few German Forces that were loyal to Germany in the area, & let to do so in small numbers and amounts of Equipment, to save face for show. Because the Allied Bombers ended up Killing 2 Million German and 3 Million Polish Civilians as their Main Target by Orders given and Agreed with!!! The Main Reason why WW2 was arranged to happen by The Negative Theft Based Population Deduction strategist of The Heads of State Regime of The Spirit World. Was to Hide and Stop the Production of Nicola Tesla Antigravity Aerospace Flight Technologies by his large scale Induction Motors. In The United States, Germany, Poland, Russia, Italy, Japan and The U.K.. This was most of the real Holocaust of WW2 along with Slovik, Baltik and African Civilians Killed by the German, Italian AND Russian Military Forces. The Hebrews Never lived in Germany in large numbers at any time in the Histories of this Planet!

P51 had legs.

I had a boss who flew F4U Corsair's in the Pacific theater. He scored 4.5 not quite making ace. His recollections were that most of the pilots couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. He flelt that what was separated the aces from the also rans. That and a good amount of luck in not getting shot down of mechanical failure..

Today's youth could never be this great.

Academic kind of question. When burning aircraft crash, we’d presume that forest fires would start. I’ve never heard of any forest fires. Why?

The North American P51S 'Spitfire'

My dad was a belly gunner in a B24 flying out of Italy. These guys knew how and why we fought to end Fascism and Nazis! God bless the greatest generation and let’s pray we have what it takes to stop this from ever happening again! 💙🇺🇸💙🗽⚖️💔

~63 years ago in Michigan we had a babysitter whose father flew a P-47 and had two Messerschmitts credited. I was too young to really appreciate what that meant.

Target fixation...totally natural but this gentleman and hero knew how to combat it...head on a swivel, always take a few available seconds to check your six and look around.

Chuck Yeagers,,, Flying Buddy,,,, Flew Their Last Combat Mission Together,,,

Bud Anderson wrote an interesting book; I'm lucky to have purchased a signed copy. Truly amazing stories of regular men in incredible situations.

My dad's Northern California small town high school class was loaded with future aces, included Bud Anderson ("Andy" then), Bob Stacker, Dean Laird, Paul Mazal and 2 or 3 others, the names elude me. Dad hated heights, so he went into the artillery. They gave everyone an IQ test, told him his was 160 and sent him to OCS, where someone was incubating measles, which Dad caught. It weakened his immunity enough so that a dormant TB bacillus in his left upper lobe woke up and he was diagnosed with TB. He'd been exposed as a teen helping his doctor father bring someone into his home office. They sent him to Walter Reed for a year. Two weeks later his battalion was sent to the invasion at Anzio, where Artillery officer mortality was 80%.
Whew.
He was medically discharged in June '44, and went home to spend the summer in the high mountains trout fishing and convalescing from TB. His college sweetie flew down from central Washington on Jan 1 '45 to marry Dad, and his childhood BF, Paul Mazal flew home on leave from the AAF in Bavaria to be his best man. Paul ("Bimbo") and Dad fished for several days, Dad took a wonderful picture of Bimbo standing in front of a massive lodgepole pine, smiling ear to ear. After the wedding Bimbo flew back to Germany where he disappeared 2 weeks later, last seen in flames plowing straight into a hillside.
Sixty years later, 2005 someone found his plane with his body still sitting in the cockpit, buried under 15 feet of Bavarian topsoil. It got a lot of press.
12 years after discharge, 1957, Dad was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. The measles virus had damaged his pancreatic beta cells, initiating a smoldering autoimmune destruction of his insulin production capability. 14 years after that, just as I was starting medical school, 1971, he started to lose his vision, and 7 years later he was dead following a failed kidney transplant, age 56.
That one rubeola virus first saved his life from death at Anzio, then progressed linearly to TB, medical discharge, wedding, Bimbo changing his schedule, leading to his death. Later Dad became diabetic and died a slow, torturous 7 year death.
One little measles virus did all that.
RFK can go fuck himself.

Glad based on his description, his group seemed to let the two pilots live. I wonder if you could find and interview those pilots?

That’s what made Gen. Anderson such an extraordinary fighter pilot: Extraordinary vision to see a shadow in the middle of a dogfight, file it in his subconscious, which interpreted the shadow & put that shadow in his “next target” file. Then, when the dogfight was done, Anderson’s subconscious pushed the shadow/target into his conscious focus and he led his squadron to destroy it. All from a fleeting shadow he picked up in the middle of dogfighting.
Like Ted Williams tracking a fastball into the sweet spot of his bat. Oh - Williams was a fighter ace, too. Special, special kind of people.

Now that Europe and ALL Western countries are quickly filling up with 3rd world shitskins, perhaps the deeds of the "greatest generation" need reassessed
