Jones’ heroic piloting during the harrowing midair collision and crash landing helped save the lives of seven other Marines onboard. The fighter jet pilot was able to eject successfully and also survived the ordeal.
Two years later, Jones received one of the highest honors a pilot can get, the Distinguished Flying Cross, and was named the Marine Corps Times 2022 Service Member of the Year.
