A new History Challenge...

[Wing Nut]

Well, since my last challenge took about, oh...  30 seconds to get answered, I thought I would come up with a toughy.  Let's see if you can answer this one.  I don't know the answer, so I'll rely on you...


Sticking with the WWII theme, who was the oldest person (from any country) to become a paratrooper and perform a combat drop?

[Stormtropper]

I don't know, but it might be Strom Thurman, he was somewhere around 42 when he parachuted into Normandy on D-Day 1944.
