<p>At the age of 28, Joseph McConnell was considered too old be a jet<br />
pilot in Korea, but he wouldn&#8217;t let that stop him.  He persisted and<br />
was assigned to 39th Fighter-Interceptor Squadron, 51st<br />
Fighter-Interceptor Wing in 1952 and was credited with shooting down<br />
16 enemy planes in a four month period and became America&#8217;s first<br />
Triple Jet Ace when he shot down three of those planes in a single<br />
day.</center></I></p>
