Air Force pilot flew in WWII and was military career officer for 21 years m Roberta Mae Gattis and had three children. remarried after Roberta died to Joanne, who is buried in a paupers grave somewhere in New York.
(notes from Son) Although the Army Air Corps, and later the U.S. Air Force, listed his name as "Franklyn Clifford Winters," this was an entry error. His correct name, on his birth certificate, was Clifford Franklyn Winters. Cliff Winters' rank at the time he retired from the USAF was "Major," not "Captain." He was a distinguished pilot with 111 combat missions in the Korean War, and was awarded the Silver Star, among other awards.
The Fighter Pilot "Stormy"
Clifford Franklyn Winters was born in 1917 in Joplin, Missouri, to a family of migrant farmers. He learned to fly in an Army Aircorps biplane after the outbreak of World War II, and went on to pilot the most sophisticated jet fighters of the day, flying more than 100 combat missions during the Korean War.
His call sign was "Stormy." ...... Stormy would not care about souvenirs or letters or the medals he earned in combat. There is no question, reflecting on the man I knew, that the one thing he would bequeath his descendants was his own indomitable spirit -- and perhaps his motto: "You Can Do Anything."
note: SS5 he writes it as Clifford Frank Winters and Signs with Cliff Winters.
