Probably about 21 in that one. Still has that twinkle in his eye though. ;) Wouldn’t trust him as far as I can throw him - unless I had to land an out-of-control plane. Then I’d trust him with my life.

Absolutely terrifying. Using it in a trench there's absolutely no escape. Horrific.
I visited an bunker on Omaha beach a few years ago and the ceiling in the main room from where they observed and fought the allies landing was still black from American flame throwers.
It was terrifying to imagine what happened there back then...
