Our View Heroic Rescue of Capt. Scott O Grady
Our view lauds Captain Scott O Grady for a dramatic rescue after six days on a Yugoslav mountaintop following his downed jet. Marines flew in five and a half hours after contact, part of a 40 aircraft mission, to bring him to safety aboard an American vessel in the Adriatic. He survived on insects and rainwater, crediting survival training and prayer, as rescue crews and gear displayed national courage.
