Fighter Pilots Join Exclusive Ace Club
Vietnam War pilots Randy Cunningham and William Driscoll earned the war's first ace designation after engaging a large MIG formation over Hanoi. They reported multiple dogfights with MIG17s MIG19s and MIG21s while flying an F4 Phantom from the carrier Constellation. Both said the title felt earned as they evacuated after combat and credited enemy errors for their success.
