EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the determined gaze and focused expression of Lieutenant Edward H. "Butch" O'Hare, a decorated US Navy fighter pilot during World War II. O'Hare, who earned the Congressional Medal of Honor for his heroic actions, is shown in flight gear and sitting in the cockpit of his Grumman F4F Wildcat fighter plane. The image exudes a sense of intensity and concentration as O'Hare prepares for a mission. The backdrop of the photograph is the open sky, with the wings of the plane casting shadows on the ground below. O'Hare, who was born in Chicago in 1914, joined the Navy in 1932 and became a naval aviator in 1935. He saw his first combat during the Battle of Wake Island in 1941, and went on to become the US Navy's leading fighter ace in the Pacific Theater, with five aerial victories. On February 2, 1943, O'Hare led a daring nighttime attack on a Japanese fleet, destroying several enemy planes and damaging a cruiser. For his bravery, he was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor, making him the first naval aviator to receive the honor during World War II. This photograph is a testament to the courage and skill of O'Hare and the other brave men and women who served in the US Navy during World War II. It is a reminder of the important role that aviation played in the outcome of the war and the sacrifices made by those who served. The image is a valuable historical document, capturing a moment in time that is both significant and inspiring.
