I had a high school math teacher that had been an Olympic Gold Medalist in the 1936 Olympics in Munich, ****ed off Hitler more than Jesse Owens did, then became a Tuskegee Airman, then got his masters in Math, then taught at my school.
He flew "The Hump" China-Burma in a C-47, then P-51s with red tails. He was a teen aged black kid in a P-51, and was beaten by Jesse Owens by 10 minutes in being the first black American to win gold in the Olympics. Nobody ever heard of him. Archie Williams, my Dad's golf buddy 40 years ago.
One of the greatest men to inhabit this planet.
Rest in peace, Mr. Williams.
