Plot Summary |
"Cowboy Down" chronicles the life and service of WWII USMC fighter pilot Maj. Robert "Cowboy" Stout. A Wyoming native, Cowboy was a Guadalcanal veteran flying with the VMF-212 "Hell Hounds" in which he became an ACE pilot scoring six enemy planes and was awarded the Navy Cross. He later became the first Captain in USMC history to command a fighter squadron in combat. After Guadalcanal, Cowboy became the CO of the VMF-114 "Death Dealers" serving in Peleliu, Palau. "Cowboy Down" is in part based on fellow USMC Corsair pilot and Cowboy's wingman, Glenn "Bud" Daniel's book; "Cowboy Down: A WWII Marine Fighter Pilot's Story."
