Cool WWII photo
A friend of mine's father in law was football hall of famer Bullet Bill Dudley. He was stationed in Saipan in World War II and when the base team heard about him, he was recruited as a utility player.
Quite a bit of big league talent on that team. Story posted subsequently for those interested. First row, left to right: Al Lien, Pacific Coast League: Taft Wright, Chicago White Sox; Buster Mills, Cleveland Indians; Dario Lodigliano, Chicago White Sox; Stan Rojek, Brooklyn Dodgers; Charlie Silvera; Johnny Mazur; Bill Dudley Second row: Mike McCormick, Cincinnati Reds; no name; Tex Hughson, Boston Red Sox; Sid Hudson; Herm Reich, Pacific Coast League; Bill Schmidt, Pacific Coast League; Bob Dillinger, Toledo AA; Chet Kehn, Brooklyn Dodgers
