Born in a small town in southwest West Virginia Chuck Yeager would go on to serve his Country in three wars and become the first person to break the sound barrier. He has bridges, highways, and an airport named after him.
Chuck Yeager was inducted into The International Air and Space Hall of Fame, the International Space Hall of Fame, and the Aerospace Walk of Honor. He had a military career that went from Private to General. He lived a life that places him deservedly in the pages of history books. He passed away 12/08/2020 at the age of 97.
The breaking of the sound barrier...
He will be missed by his family, friends, the State of West Virginia and is a true hero!
