Default Salute your favorite war hero/ballplayer

Posted By: Steve Dawson

Yogi Berra operated one of the guns on a boat off Omaha Beach on D-Day.

Bob Feller was stationed on the USS Alabama (battleship) in the Pacific during WWII (where he earned eight Battlestars).

Jerry Coleman was a Marine pilot during the Korean War.


Also, they mentioned on ESPN tonight that Morgan Bulkeley served in the Civil War.

Thanks to Adam for the assist on Feller's Battlestars!
