"Courage is doing what you are afraid to do. There can be no courage unless you are terrified." - Eddie Rickenbacker. The women and men who triumphed in World Battle II for the Allies have been called "the greatest generation," and rightfully so, for they preserved the Lady from devastation and domination by totalitarian dictators. As Winston Churchill so eloquently said, "Never in neuro-scientific human turmoil was a lot owed by so many to so few." However, even through this glorious group, there is another, maybe even more superlative generation composed of women and men who fought not only in World Battle II, but also World Battle I, which at the time was the deadliest & most destructive war ever sold. A few of these fighters were young enough to combat in both wars, and Eddie Rickenbacker was one of these, one of the "best of the greatest." Though he served only in a civilian capacity during World Battle II, he remains today an enchanting hero of a bygone era, a guy who flew airplanes which were little more than hang up gliders with motors and guns, and survived to help design jets. His service triumphed in him the Medal of Honor, along with more honours for valor than some other person struggling with in World Battle I. But taking part in the wars had not been nearly plenty of time in the air for the ambitious Rickenbacker. When he had not been setting new documents in the air, he was preparing new speed documents on the ground, most notably as a first generation contest car driver who not only drove cars, but designed them. He also served for many years as the chief executive of 1 of the world's first major commercial traveler aviation companies, Eastern Airlines, viewing it through the pros and cons of the financial and technical increase and bust in the us between the wars.
