The grandson commands the same unit that his grandfather commanded in WWII.

I’m sure something similar had happened before (I know Jimmy Doolittle’s grandson commanded a test unit at Wright-Patterson) but not very often.

He flew FIFI last year and one other time before that. He’s a really nice guy.
