There are not many left from WW2, but what those men did and lived through will never be forgotten.

RIP to a true American hero,

According to the VFW and Dec 2020 posting;

Of the 16 million Americans who served in WWII, only an estimated 100,000 will be alive in 2021 -- the youngest: 95.

RIP Ray Miller....he was a great PC for the Orioles.  The Orioles were lucky to have 2 gret pitching coaches back to back.

 

The "Rabbit" was 75.

The guy really hustled and cleaned up on tips.  He made you want to buy lemonade for the show.  RIP, he always seemed like a good guy.

His block where he pinned the ball against the backboard without jumping is an all time classic.
