Robin Olds
Robin Olds is an American fighter pilot and an officer in the United States Air Force. He is a "three ace", with a total of 17 victories in World War II and the Vietnam War. He retired in 1973 as a brigadier general, after 30 years of service. The son of West Point-trained Air Force Major General Robert Olds and the product of education in the early years of the United States Air Force, Olds is a miniature image of the young fighter pilot during WWII. He remained in service as the United States Air Force, although often in conflict with its leadership, and was one of its pioneer jet pilots. As the commander of both fighter wings, Olds is considered by aviation historians and colleagues to be the best squadron commander in the Vietnam War, both for his flying skills and reputation. Olds was promoted to the rank of brigade after returning from Vietnam, but held no other commanders.
