Item Description

Arthur Roger Conant (1918-2007) Enlisting in the U.S. Navy, Roger Conant received his wings as a Marine pilot in 1942. Assigned to VMF 215 he flew the Chance Vought F4U Corsair on well over 100 combat missions, mostly in the air battles over Rabaul and the Solomon Islands where he downed a total of 6 Japanese Mitsubishi Zeros. He was on his return to the Pacific theater as a night fighter pilot on the day war ended. He has 5 distinguished flying crosses awarded. In 1952, working as a test pilot for Douglas Aircraft and engaged in air-to-missile testing, Conant shot down five unmanned drone B-17s, making him perhaps the only American Ace to ALSO shoot down FIVE American aircraft. Roger Conant USMC(R) passed away on March 10, 2007.
