Formation of Friendship

Al Tucker Jr.'s talks with First Sgt. Dave Brown, Air Force Reserve, over dinner at a restaurant near Brown's hanger at Warrenton-Fauquier Airport in Warrenton Va., Jul. 28, 2017. Tucker, now 96, regularly makes the trip from Lexington, Va., to fly Brown's PT-17 Stearman biplane, the same model in which Tucker trained in 1942 before going on to fly P-38 fighter aircraft over Europe with the U.S. Army Air Corps during WWII with his friend, then Lt. Robin Olds. (U.S. Air Force photo by J.M. Eddins Jr.)
