The article narrates the extraordinary life of Elmer Pankratz, a nearly 102-year-old American pilot from World War II known for flying the North American F-6D Mustang, a photo reconnaissance variant of the P-51 Mustang. Written by Tom Laemlein and published on The Armory Life, the piece details Pankratz's journey from dreaming of flight during the Great Depression to becoming a highly skilled reconnaissance pilot. Pankratz's experiences during training, including a harrowing night flight that killed eight cadets and his near-disastrous first solo in a P-40 Warhawk, are vividly recounted. His wartime exploits, including flying during the Battle of the Bulge and evading German flak, demonstrate his bravery and skill. The narrative concludes with Pankratz's post-war life, highlighting his memoir "I Needed a War To Do It" and ongoing engagements with the community.
