He is just a few months older than my dad who lived past 90. He likewise enlisted in 41 and went from Private to Master Sgt in the US. Belgium and the Battle of the Bulge. They made them tough back then.

But for a back issue that hit his mobility, he would have probably made 100.

Every time a celebrity dies I say “we’ll, there’s another one my mother has outlived”. Kirk has her by 2 years. Good for him. Happy a Birthday, Mr. Douglas.

Ppppp
