California Pilot Volunteers to Shuttle U.S. Marines

Pilot Charlie Sweet donates his time every Sunday to shuttle U.S. Marines from Palm Springs, Calif., to the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center at Twentynine Palms. Sweet, a pilot for 37 years, transports the Marines in his four-seat Beechcraft Baron. “These guys are willing to lay down their lives for us,” said Sweet. “This is the least we can do.” KESQ-TV (Palm Desert, Calif.)
