The Young Recruit Pilot
A very young recruit showed such a high aptitude for aviation that he was sent right to an aircraft carrier in the Pacific. The very first day he soloed and was the best flier on the base. He quickly earned his gold wings.
Next day he took off and single-handedly shot down six Japanese planes. Then climbing up to 20,000 ft., he found nine more Japanese planes and shot them all down, too. Noting that his fuel was getting low, he descended, circled the carrier, and came in for a perfect landing on the deck.
He threw back the canopy, climbed out, and jogged over to the captain. Saluting smartly, he said, "Well, sir, how did I do on my very first day?"
The captain turned around, bowed, and replied, "You make one velly impoltant mistake!"
