In memoriam: Nickel on the grass to Lt. General Charles Chick Cleveland
Cleveland was an Ace in the Korean War, and a friend of the River Region through his work commanding Air University
Col. Al Allenback
Lieutenant General Charles “Chick” Cleveland has flown West.
In pilot parlance, that means he has flown off into the sunset, always to be remembered and hopefully encountered again on a personal future flight West. He died in Montgomery on May 22, surrounded by his family.
General Cleveland was the last living Korean War Ace, a man who made history and meant so much to so many.
