    Retired Brig. Gen. George Bartlett, a former navigator bombardier during WWII, stands near a B-25 Mitchell bomber May 18 during the 2014 Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point Air Show. Bartlett flew out of Cherry Point 70 years ago in a North American Aviation patrol bomber, a naval version of the B-25, for combat in the South Pacific. While there, he flew 75 combat missions. His return flight to the air station for the air show marked a significant milestone not just in aviation history, but in the passing of the torch from an older generation to a new one, said the 90-year-old aviator.
