RTB S/L Shulemson


From Bound By Gravity:

World War 2 fighter pilot, Syd Shulemson, passed away last week at the age of 91. He was Canada's most decorated Jewish soldier during the war, and was essential in devising a method of launching low-level rocket attacks against Axis ships. Take a few minutes to learn a bit about this lost Canadian hero...


Follow the link in Andrew's piece: the anecdote about Shulemson in the Aurora flight simulator at CFB Greenwood last fall is priceless.

RIP, sir.
