Priority One Mike Harris

This story is true, although it reads like fiction. During WWII Charles Woods flew B-24 Liberators loaded with gasoline across the "hump" from India to China, to help supply Gen. Clair Chennault's "Flying Tigers". When he crashed on takeoff his bomber exploded into flames, Charles was the only survivor. Horribly burned, his only hope for survival was a pass that read "Priority One". This is an inspiring story of how Charles Woods willed himself to live, became a success in life, and at his death was honored in the U. S. Senate.
