Captain Ken Well, PART 2: United States Air Force Pilot and Vietnam POW

Pilot Down-Part 2 – My Guests, United States Air Force Pilot and Vietnam POW, Captain Ken Wells is joined by his wife Candy, to share their story. “Freedom is the sure possession of those alone who have the courage to defend it.” ~ Anonymous   In this week’s episode I was blessed to not only have Officer Ken Wells on the show, but I was honored to have his wife as well.  Captain Wells was an F4 pilot for the Air Force.  He served from 1969 to 1978 and 466 days of that service was spent as a POW. Honoring our veterans is something that we should all do, but equally we should honor their families that allow for the sacrifice.  Captain Wells shares with us how he and his partner found themselves in a dire situation when they ran their F4 out of fuel while still over enemy territory.  Once they had to eject there was no certainty that they would ever see their loved ones again. Ken’s wife Candy was back home and 5 days away from giving birth to their first child when Ken’s plane went down.  Mrs. Candy was suddenly facing the difficulties of being a first time mom and possibly a widow.  Life was definitely never going to be the same. Their story of survival and overcoming great odds is one that needed a two part story line in order to get a decent picture of what life was like for these two incredible patriots.  THE EXCITING CONCLUSION TO “PILOT DOWN”.
