If you are looking for some documented proof that the movie ignited an
armed forces aviation craze, you won't get it from me. No, I don't care; I was just responding to a post on the topic. Timing makes a difference in your chance of getting flight training. The Air Force shut down Air Cadet recruiting near the end of WW II, just two weeks before my 17th birthday. I was bitterly disappointed. A couple years later, the Marine Corps offered a chance to go to flight training and I grabbed it. Lucky break, actually; I learned to land on a carrier, which I wouldn't have in the Air Force. vince norris
