RIP to another WWII great. Born to incredible wealth and privilege, he chose a career of military service and by age 22 was the XO of a destroyer that saw combat in the invasion of Sicily. A lot like GHWB, you have to tip your hat to a man who chooses to fight for his country in a time of war when he easily could have avoided it.

An example of what royalty was supposed to be about instead of its usual sordid reality.
