Born in a West Virginia hollow, a mechanic's son with no college who enlisted as a private and flew fighters over Europe. He broke the sound barrier in 1947 two nights after cracking two ribs falling off a horse, he had a broom handle rigged to close the hatch, and told almost no one.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
