First person to land a jet aircraft on an aircraft carrier

One of only two people to survive their ship being sunk by a U-Boat
Was at the liberation of Bergen Belsen
Interrogated Goering and Himmler

RIP George Kennedy. Loved most of his movies, disaster ones and comedies. He was brilliant as Frank Drebins right hand man. Every bit as funny as Leslie Neilson.
RIP big guy."...when Hibernian won the Scottish Cup final and that celebration, Sunshine on Leith? I don’t think there’s a better football celebration ever in the game.”
