Charles "Charlie" Thompson Winters (February 10, 1913 – October 29, 1984) was an American businessman who volunteered during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War. He was imprisoned for 18 months for helping smuggle three B-17 Flying Fortress heavy bombers to Israel in the late 1940s, but pardoned posthumously by President George W. Bush on December 23, 2008. ==Early life== Winters, the Protestant son of Scotch-Canadian and Irish parents, was born in Brookline, Massachusetts in 1913.〔 Polio struck him at an early age, leaving him with a limp.〔 Because of this handicap, the United States Army rejected him during World War II, and he instead spent the war working for the government as a purchasing agent.〔
