The pistol was an M1911 Colt .45 Owen John Baggett Killed Japanese Pilot in Mid Air-Reported as Truth!
/\ /\ /\ /\ Try THAT with a 9 mike mike!! .45acp 1911 Colt, the only way to fly...........or parachute.
Kudos to Baggett for his humility and resisting the temptation of becoming a braggart. His survival as a Japanese prisoner of war is impressive in itself.
Very Nice video chelloveck! I thank you and salute you sir. LOL, don't mess with Texas or a man packing a 45 Colt.
He was from Texas That's almost a given, just about anywhere you go and if something amazing or interesting happens one of them is from Texas, from the moon to anywhere on the earth whether aid workers, christian volunteers, soldiers in ours and other nations military, bleeding edge to leading edge there will be a Texan, like Audie Murphy, one of the most decorated WWII soldiers, Alan Bean astronaut walked on the moon here is a list of some others known the world over. a favorite saying here is, "God bless Texas" and God has. Famous Texas People With all the worries about a financial crash here some who are not prepared might find out how it feels to loose half your weight. looking at what a financial and governmental failure might look like, I watched some videos that claim that the average Venezuelan has lost over 20 pounds and the children are failing to grow or thrive.
You Texans give me Gas... You had better quit bragging, or we Alaskans will cut Alaska in Half and Texas will become the Third Largest State....
Not bragging it's just funny how a places pride motivates it's people in some cases to do extraordinary things or seems to play some part in how their people react, Alaska has that same type of pride. back in the day England had it. In this case Baggett acting in true Texas fashion figured if he was going to die he was going to make it a fight and someone was going to at least walk away limping. I liked that he took out an enemy pilot as they can do a lot of damage and killing, plus the loss of a plane in a theater of war the replacement cost of another pilot and plane to get it from Japan, he did his duty well with what little he had. I relish the fact that he did it with a 1911.
Be ware the Man who carries a FuddyFive, he is like to know how to use it, and use it well! And only 7 or 8 rounds, take that Glock! God bless the Texians!
