Cecil Foster was born in Midland County, Michigan, on August 30,
1925. He endured economic and emotional hardship during his youth,
living in a poor environment, losing his mother before he was six,
and being separated from his brothers, sisters, and father. He
joined the Army Air Force in 1943 as a private at the height of the
World War II buildup and retired in 1975 as a lieutenant colonel.
During his 32 years with the Air Force, Foster served in several
different capacities - pilot, celestial navigator,
radar-navigator-bombardier, intercept director, and squadron
commander. A major focus of this work is Foster's Air Force career
in the Korean War where he was one of the highest-scoring aces of
the air war. His record of nine MiGs destroyed places him 12 on a
list of 38 aces. Every one of the aircraft he destroyed was shot
down in the area known as ""MiG Alley,"" a smali section of
airspace along the Yalu River, which separated North Korea from
China.
