摘要

James Robinson Risner, a Korean War ace who gained world attention as a Vietnam War combat pilot and leader of fellow prisoners of war in the infamous "Hanoi Hilton" during more than seven years of captivity, died Oct. 22 at the age of 88. He was the first living recipient of the Air Force Cross and one of only a handful of airmen to be awarded the medal twice. Risner's gutsy airmanship led to noteworthy victories, but he also helped create a code of conduct for POWs that endures to this day. Born in Mammoth Spring, Ark., in 1925, Risner grew up in Oklahoma, the son of a sharecropper. At 18, he enlisted as an aviation cadet in the Army, receiving his wings and commission in May 1944.Though he requested World War II combat duty, he was assigned to fly fighters in Panama.
