Summary

David served several tours of duty as a soldier in Northern Ireland, but always knew he’d fly planes on the mission field. His exploits in Irian Jaya with naked cannibal tribesfolk are sometimes hilarious, other times deeply moving. He picked up some wounds along the way, but is still hanging in there and making his life count! --- Support us: https://www.greatlakesoutreach.org/get-involved/inspired-give/?utm_source=inspired_description&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=inspired&utm_id=inspired (⁠⁠greatlakesoutreach.org/inspired⁠⁠) Choose Life in 2023: https://www.greatlakesoutreach.org/people/simon-guillebaud/choose-life-2023/?utm_source=inspired_description&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=inspired&utm_id=inspired (⁠⁠greatlakesoutreach.org/chooselife⁠⁠) If you'd like to receive a weekly podcast episode link that you can share with your friends on WhatsApp, click this link to join the group with ease: https://www.simonguillebaud.com/inspired-podcast/#whatsapp (⁠⁠simonguillebaud.com/inspired-podcast/#whatsapp⁠⁠) For more from Simon visit: https://www.simonguillebaud.com/ (⁠⁠simonguillebaud.com⁠⁠) --- Produced by Great Lakes Outreach - Transforming Burundi and Beyond: https://www.greatlakesoutreach.org/?utm_source=inspired_description&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=inspired&utm_id=inspired (⁠⁠greatlakesoutreach.org⁠⁠)

Yeah, a chance to go flying with Daddy. And of course, the people were just amazed that I'd come in with these two little white boys. Timmo laughed and he explained to me.
