Thomas Jackson Lisenby

“Many men in my family served in the military. My father and father-in-law served in WWII, and my uncles also served. I always knew that I would serve if the need came. I was 20 years old when I went into pilot training and was assigned to a T-33. Some of my training missions included working on tactical formation which was a unique experience. After training, I was ready and waiting to be called for overseas duty but the war had ended so I stayed stateside.”
