Famous AP Ted William's WAR Image TYPE 1

Slug reads:
Ted Williams, former Boston Red Sox slugger, is shown in cockpit of a Marine F9F-5 Panther jet fighter plane, while taking a refresher course in Sept. 1952. Williams, a Marine captain, crash-landed his burning Panther jet fighter bomber, February 16, 1953, at a forward base in Korea after participating in a 200 plane strike in North Korea. Williams walked away from his damaged plane and there was no indication he suffered any injuries.
2/16.53


LATER:
When Republican presidential candidate, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., asked Williams why he didn't eject from his burning plane, Williams told him about a metal bow stretched across the canopy, a barrier he figured his long frame would never clear: "And I looked at my knees and I knew that I was going to break both my knees if I ejected and never play baseball again,'"
Williams said.
