Francis E. Ormsbee, Jr. : ウィキペディア英語版
Francis E. Ormsbee, Jr.

Francis "Frank" Edward Ormsbee, Jr. (April 30, 1892 to October 24, 1936) was an American naval aviator serving in the U.S. Navy during World War I. He received the Medal of Honor for bravery.
==Biography==
After growing up in Rhode Island, Ormsbee joined the United States Navy in 1917. He was serving at Naval Air Station Pensacola in Florida in 1918 when he rescued a gunner from a downed aircraft at great personal risk. He was awarded the Navy Cross, which was later upgraded to the Medal of Honor. It is worth noting that several sources state that Ormsbee was not a pilot at the time of this incident, but rather a member of the aircrew. He would go on to earn his wings in 1920, receiving the Naval Aviation Number "NAP-25". His brother, Army Second Lieutenant Harry Selfridge Ormsbee, died in a crash just over a year before Frank qualified as a pilot in the Navy.
In 1929, Ormsbee was discharged from the Navy and worked in various private roles, including flying airmail in Central America. He was known for flying what was at the time the world's longest airmail route- Miami, Florida to Santiago, Chile. He joined the Bureau of Air Commerce in 1935 and served as Assistant Manager of the First Air Navigation Division, as well as a Patrol Pilot and Inspector. He served the Bureau of Air Commerce until his death in 1936.
