Joe McCarthy was an American who joined up in the RCAF before the US got into the war..He was also highly decorated and after the war stayed on in the RCAF ..He was my CO in Clinton and it was amazing to watch a living legend on parade..His gongs would knock your eyes out.
Just a war story from a long time ago..
