…the World's Largest Snake.

"Remy Van Lierde was World War II flying ace who became an inspiration to the Belgian people after he escaped the Nazi occupation to join the Royal Air Force (RAF). He was a skilled pilot and rose through the RAF's ranks accordingly. He became especially well-known for shooting down dozens of V-1 rockets.

After the war he held several important commands, including being an aide to King Leopold III, and served as a test pilot. It was on one of his later missions that he allegedly came across a 50-foot snake in the Belgian Congo. Who was this incredible pilot, and what did he see that day?…."
