USAF Colonel Bernard F Fisher (deceased)

Bernie Fisher was born in San Bernardino, California in 1927. Shortly after his birth his family moved to Clearfield, Utah where the he spent his youth. In March of 1945 Fisher joined the Navy. With the end of WW 11, Bernie was discharged from the Navy, and he attended Boise Junior College, and the University of Utah. In 1951 Fisher graduated from Utah and in 1953 he received an Air Force ROTC commission. He entered the Air Force's Primary Flying School at Marana, Arizona, and later attended Basic Flying School at Williams AFB in Arizona, Instrument School at Moody AF13 in Georgia, and Day Fighter School at Tyndall AF13 in Florida. At Tyndall Fisher trained on the F-80. His first operational assignment was with the 42nd Fighter Interceptor Squadron at O'Hare Field in Chicago, flying the F-86 Sabre. Fisher attended Squadron Officer School at Maxwell AF13 in Alabama, and in 1955 was assigned to Japan as a member of the 339th Fighter Interceptor Squadron. Following his completion of Interceptor Controller School, Fisher was assigned to the 801st AC&W Squadron in Montana. By 1961 Fisher was flying the F-101B with the 29th Fighter Interceptor Squadron, and in 1963 was transferred to the 319th where he piloted the Lockheed F-104 Starfighter. During this assignment he performed two successful dead stick landings with the F-104 after experiencing engine failures at altitude. This unusual feat earned Fisher the Air Medal. In early 1965 following his promotion to Major, Fisher volunteered for duty in Vietnam. His primary assignment in Vietnam was to train Vietnamese Air Force pilots in the Al-E Skyraider. However, many combat mission ensued, including the daring rescue mission in the A Shau Valley in March of 1966, for which Fisher was awarded the Medal of Honor. In August of 1966 Fisher was reassigned to the 496th Fighter Interceptor Squadron in Germany where he flew the Convair F-102. Fisher commanded the 525th FIS and the 87th FIS where he flew the F-106. His final assignment with the Air Force prior to his retirement was as Air Guard Group Adviser to the 191st FS in Boise, Idaho. Col. Fisher flew for a commuter airline for several years while working his family farm in Idaho. His many decorations, awards, and medals include the Distinguished Flying Cross, the World War 11 Victory Medal, the Vietnam Service Medal, the Air Force Longevity Service Ribbon, the National Defense Service Medal, the Combat Readiness Medal, the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal, to name only a few. Married to the former Realla Jane Johnson, Colonel Fisher has six sons, three of whom have served in the United States Air Force. The Fishers lived in Kuna, Idaho. Bernie Fisher died on 16th August 2014.
