Although now alone, Ralph
decided to attack them all .


During this attack, didn't Ralph make that famous radio call:"I've got 'em
cornered"? Or something to that effect.

Parr didn't watch the MiG hit the ground. "I didn't have time to gloat - I
had 15 other guys up there." In quick succession, the young Sabre pilot
downed one more MiG and damaged another before the remaining enemy aircraft
split up and headed for home.

Three-war Veteran. The legend of Ralph Parr took root when a debriefing
officer later joked about how the captain had "cornered" an entire squadron
of 16 MiGs that day.
