WWII Hero and Candy Bomber Contracts COVID-19, Family Says Newsweek 12/12/2020 Jeffery Martin © Carsten Koall/Getty Famed pilot Gail Halverson, who delivered candy via parachute to children in Berlin during the 1940s, has contracted COVID-19, according to members of his family. Gail Halvorsen, known as the Candy Bomber for his actions during the Berlin Airlift during the 1940s tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday, according to members of his family. Halvorsen is 100 years old. The resident of a long-term care facility in Provo, Utah, Halvorsen is reportedly quarantining. Halversen acquired the nickname of the Candy Bomber after World War II during the blockade of Berlin which began in 1948.

In a 2009 interview, Halverson said he was initially unsure about helping German nationals.
