VETERANS DAY SALUTE

In honor of Veterans day  on  11/11, I'd like to remind folks of the star athletes that interrupted their Sports career in order to serve in the  U.S. Military.565  MLB players 95% served in  WWII   29 were future hall of famers., 5   HOFers served in Korea. ,    638    NFL players did the same.  Following are just some of the well known names,   Joe Dimaggio, Ted Williams, Bob Feller, Yogi Berra, Warren Spahn, Jackie Robinson, Stan Musial. boxer Joe Louis. and many others.  I salute these great athletes and American Heroes for  putting country over self.  I wonder if today's stars would even consider doing it.    I just don't see  Pujos, Fielder, Lebron, Kobe, Matt Ryan doing this.  It's a different culture in the U.S. now and that's a shame.
