PILOT G. E. “ED” YOUNG
“This dull chrysalis „
Cracks into shining wings, and hope ere death.
How aptly trite are Tennyson's flute-like „ notes in j
epitomizing the passing of Aviator G. E. “Ed” Young,
killed Wednesday at Livengood when his plane crashed.
It was mete that the spirit which found unrest be
low the high horizons of etheral infinitude should have
burst into chrysalis and soared on and on.
It was as he would have had it—a plunge from the
limitless skies, to rise again to mingle in the great mys
tery of the beyond; perchance to return again a traveler
of strange countries unapproachable save through the
great adventure, death. And in returning to again pioneei
the frontiers still challenging man far beyond the pies
ent known. . . .
“Ed” Young was a pioneer in a distinctive tielcl, that
of proving the airplane is suitable to the work of pene
trating trackless reaches, including the Arctic with its
1owt temperatures and multiple hazards not confronting
the average flyer in the more settled portions of Ameiica.
“Ed” Young had already emblazoned his name im
perishably upon the history of Alaska. His name will re
main enshrined in the hearts of his compeers who will
share wTith his loved ones the grief of his taking.
In “Ed” Young were qualities rarely found outside
the ranks of this flower of American youth, emblematic
of every virtue one would ask in sterling manhood. Bound
as they are by a loyalty measuring up to the greatest
traditions of comradie, this air pioneer of a new age has
won the right to stand beside the illustrious of all ages.
A son of the viking breed, “Ed” Young died as a
viking with his face to Valhalla, with his aerial valkerie
as his sepulchre. _
