R.I.P. WW II Pilot George H.W. Bush

Former President of the United States George H.W. Bush died earlier today at the age of 94. He was a torpedo bomber pilot in World War II who flew 58 missions against the Japanese, including being shot down once, and was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross. In addition to this he was elected a U.S. Congressman, appointed Director of the CIA, Ambassador to the United Nations, Ambassador to the People's Republic of China, served eight years as Vice President of the United States, and was the country's 41st President.
While I did not always agree with his politics, it cannot be argued that he was a man without high moral integrity and a sense of duty to his country.
