What's that in the sky? Is it a bird? A plane? No it's, well actually yea it's a plane. And this bad motherfucker, Gregory "Pappy" Boyington, is flying it. This dude was smart as hell and became a plane engineer, but that wasn't enough for him. He wanted to fly them. And also shoot Japs. So he took every single opportunity he had to do so until it kinda bit him in the ass. But hey, what's life without a bit of risk eh? Anyway, Pappy put in some serious work and lived a hell of a life, so enjoy!
