Artist's commentary

  • One Ride with Yankee Papa 13

    "LIFE Magazine was doing an article on USMC gunner Lance Cpl. James C. Farley (crew chief of Yankee Papa 13) who would try and rescue my dad in the midst of a heavy gun fight. Farley and YP13 had to leave dad at the LZ because all hell was breaking­-loose after an attempt to pull him from the cockpit. Unknown to Farley, a gun-fight happening on the other side of the ship as ‘Rocky’ protected the injured and himself until help arrived. The LIFE article was a big deal when released in April 1965 as it was the first time the American public would see their young boys getting killed in action. 'One Ride With Yankee Papa 13' was a page turner in 1965 and still is today." - https://www.myyankeepapa.com/

    The April 16, 1965, issue of LIFE Magazine is free on Google Books - https://books.google.com/books?id=RlMEAAAAMBAJ&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false
