A wish come true: Washington native becomes World War II downed pilot
Carl Hess, Make-A-Wish recipient, views the USS Arizona Memorial from the bow of the USS Bowfin during a tour, near Ford Island, Hawaii, Feb. 19, 2013. Carl is fighting acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), a fast-growing cancer of the white blood cells, and wished to be a downed World War II pilot. During his visit he received a rare opportunity to spend the night aboard the USS Missouri, fly in a bi-plane, and tour various historical WWII sites. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Jerome S.
