Re: Newest USAF Ace!


Congrats to retired Lt. Gen. Charles G. Cleveland! An ACE which truly deserves acknowledgement! TY for the post.
I could use a diecast of his mount like the above, for sure! It's just too !

Re: Newest USAF Ace!

Congratulations to Lt. General Charles Cleveland on his ACE status. A well deserved award.

He will now probably be the last American who will ever receive ACE status.

Re: Newest USAF Ace!

That had to be some sweet news for him. It would be great if someone would put out a diecast model of his aircraft.

Re: Newest USAF Ace!

Great story. Thanks for sharing. Congratulations to the General. I especially appreciate the effort of Lieutenant Overton and others to make this happen. Very inspiring.
