This week’s Urban Valor episode features Korean war veteran, Victor Real. Victor grew up in Santa Monica, CA during the Great Depression. To make money he picked cotton, grapes, and cleared out walnut fields. When the harvest ended, and there was no money to be made, Victor decided to enlist in the Marines. Shortly after enlisting, he requested to go to aviation school where he finished in the top three of his class. It landed him a job working  with President D. Eisenhower to establish what we now know as “Marine  One.” During a preflight inspection, Victor witnessed a plane crash into the ocean and ended up rescuing the drowning pilot who was stuck in his harness. Upon transitioning out of the Marine Corps, Victor received his engineering degree and was credited with two patents in his name for the work he did.?
