The Unlucky Eight,

by Stan Stokes

 

Jim Swett’s first combat yielded seven aerial victories for the young USMC pilot on April 7, 1943. He officially got credit for 7 Vals on this mission, although Jim thinks he may have gotten 8. For his efforts, this ace-in-a-day was awarded the Medal of Honor. He ended the War with 16.5 aerial victories.
