| Jim Babbitt's life reads like a history book of the expanding West and its connection to a more innocent and patriotic America. From his youth growing up in a frontier town as part of the Babbitt dynasty, his love of the ranches, his leadership in the Babbitt Brothers Trading Company and his career as an auto dealer, Jim will tell you he's had a wonderful life. But he won't tell you much. And he's certainly not likely to open the chapter about his three years as a World War II fighter pilot, his 60 combat missions and how he escorted General George Patton by air across Europe and into Germany, from the Normandy Invasion to the end of the war. |

When David and Billy Babbitt stepped off the train at sunrise in their fine business suits to snowcovered mountains and the burnt remains of a post-fire Flagstaff they may not have known that their destiny as cattle barons was as clear here as the chilly mountain air. |
