Anyone's who ever played any fighter-pilot simulator games will tell you that the toughest missions are ones that require you to protect heavy transports or bombers.
It's easy to fend for yourself when your plane moves as quickly as the enemy, but it's absolutely frustrating to have to protect the friendly heavies that travel slowly.
You are trying to get kills, you are trying to score points, but sticking to the bombers don't let you do so.
It's so easy to get caught up glory hunting that you leave your convoy unprotected while you engage enemy planes.
Yes you rack up more kills than anyone else, and become a hero on your own, but you lose track of the bigger mission.
For a fighter pilot to put the transports first is an incredible sacrifice.
Kudos to these guys.
The real heroes are the ones we don't hear about.
