Charles Lindbergh 

Charles Augustus Lindbergh (February 4, 1902 ? August 26, 1974) (nicknamed "Slim,"Every, Dale Van; Morris DeHaven Tracy. (1927, 2005) Charles Lindbergh: His Life, Khttp://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/12/Button_gallery.pngessinger Publishing, pp. 60, 84, 91, 208. ISBN 1417918845 "Lucky Lindy" and "The Lone Eagle") was an American aviator, author, inventor and explorer.

On May 20?21, 1927, Lindbergh, then a 25-year old U.S. Air Mail pilot, emerged from virtual obscurity to almost instantaneous world fame as the result of his Orteig Prize-winning solo non-stop flight from Roosevelt Field located in Garden City on New York's Long Island to Le Bourget Field in Paris, France, in the single-seat, single-engine monoplane Spirit of St. Louis. Lindbergh, an Army reserve officer, was also awarded the nation's highest military decoration, the Medal of Honor, for his historic exploit."Charles Lindbergh Medal of Honor." charleslindbergh.com

In the late 1920s and early 1930s, Lindbergh relentlessly used his fame to help promote the rapid development of U.S. commercial aviation. In March, 1932, however, his infant son, Charles, Jr., was kidnapped and murdered in what was soon dubbed the "Crime of the Century" which eventually led to the Lindbergh family fleeing the United States in December 1935 to live in Europe where they remained up until the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Before the United States entered WWII in December, 1941, Lindbergh had been an outspoken advocate of keeping the U.S. out of the world conflict (as was his Congressman father Charles August Lindbergh during World War I) and became a leader of the anti-war America First movement. Nonetheless, he supported the war effort after Pearl Harbor and flew many combat missions in the Pacific Theater of World War II as a civilian consultant, even though President Roosevelt had refused to reinstate his Army Air Corps colonel's commission that he had resigned earlier in 1939.

In his later years, Lindbergh became a prolific prize-winning author, international explorer, inventor, and active environmentalist.Innovators: Charles Lindbergh Chasing The Sun, PBS/KCET. Retrieved: April 3, 2008.
