Archie Glenn Donahue (October 24, 1917 – July 30, 2007) was a decorated American combat pilot and a United States Marine Corps fighter ace during World War II.

While training other pilots in aerial gunnery, Donahue was nearly killed when the tail of his F4F Wildcat was sheared off in a midair collision over Marine Corps Air Station El Toro.

[2][3] Two days later, Donahue claimed two more victories, but was forced to make an emergency landing in the Russell Islands when his plane was hit by enemy fire.

The squadron was attached to the USS Bunker Hill, taking part in raids over mainland Japan and supporting the Marine landings at Iwo Jima.

[2] On April 12, 1945, Major Donahue finally earned the title of ace in a day, personally shooting down three Vals and two Zekes with his F4U Corsair off the coast of Okinawa.

[2][5] On the morning of May 11, Donahue had just returned from a flying mission when the USS Bunker Hill was struck by two kamikazes and over 390 sailors and Marines were killed, including one pilot from VMF-451.

From 1981 to 1991, he worked for the Confederate Air Force, an organization devoted to restoring World War II aircraft.
