Lindbergh is set to touch down any minute. There's about 100,000 people waiting for him to land just west of here. Flying, what, 3500 miles in a crappy single-seater? Guy's like Indiana Jones. He was. Just a nice boy from St. Louis who becomes the most famous man in the world. About a decade from now he becomes a Nazi sympathiser, paranoid, and anti-Semitic. Hitler? Awards him a medal. Boy, that story took a dark turn.
Timeless rewatch: The Lost Generation
