John Heroux: Gulf War Fighter Pilot
Eliminating an enemy's ability to engage in warfare is the goal; human loss is the terrible cost.
2012·7m·★ 0.0
In 1991, John Heroux served in Operation Desert Storm, piloting one of forty F16 Fighter Planes sent in to target large manufacturing facilities deep inside Iraq. Looking back on these missions, John explains that pilots, himself included, felt no pride at causing destruction, but did have pride in serving their country and completing their tasks. This is his story.
