1944: Young George H W Bush and World War II service

We remember today a very young George Bush in 1944.     
The story is that the future President’s plane was shot down leaving him floating in the shark infected waters for hours. He was eventually found by a US submarine in the area.
The young Navy pilot flew 58 combat missions, won 3 Air Medals as well as a Presidential Unit Citation.
Great story!
