Default American Hero

Condolences to friends and family of The Colonel as he was called. I just read a great tribute/story of him on espn.com. He is the only ball player to fly combat mission in two wars- WWII & Korea. Ted Williams also was enlisted in both but only saw combat in Korea (He was also a hero, no shame there). Coleman was the MVP of the 1950 World Series and a Hall of Fame broadcaster. Rest in Peace
