Yes, Ted, Drew and Gary get a BIG thank you from me.
White played pro-football and pro-baseball? WOW! I never knew that. Heck, I never knew that people like Charles Turnning, Mel Brooks, Dale Robertson and Tom Posting actually fought in the war. |

Yes Mr. Ross, ... I misspelled Poston too .......... I am sorry ...
But, of late (this past week?) I have been dealing with a manic-depressive brother who now has a heart problem who's my primary care-giver who needs surgery ...
So, my mind has been otherwise engaged with more important matters than actor's name.
So, I apologize for misspelling Mr. Durnin's and Mr. Poston's names ........ |

Something about Mr. Brooks was that he dug up mines and fought in the Battle of the Bulge and my uncle fought in that battle too.
I did not know that Mr. Durnin was captured by the Germans after he was in the first wave on D-Day.
My respect for both men skyrocketed after I learned that. |
