I know there were at least a few navy fighter pilots that carried fish with them in their jets on missions.


There is video of this.

It may be out there on the internet somewhere. I saw it a few years ago, one of the pilots in question showed me the video.

HA I found it!

still waiting for the final outcome of his actions. Meanwhile, he has
