1945 International News Photos Mario "Motts" Tonelli

Posted By: John S

A great historical piece that pictures "Motts" Tonelli of the Chicago Cardinals after returning from four years in various Japanese POW camp. Tonelli was a great football player at Notre Dame, survived the Bataan Death March, and returned home to play a short time for the Cardinals. His story is incredible.
