Eric Huberth was a reluctant warrior, according to his sisters. He loved animals and wanted to be a veterinarian. He applied for admission to veterinary school but didn’t get in. After graduating from Cal State Northridge and facing the draft, Huberth — whose second love was fast cars — decided to join the Air Force as a pilot trainee.
