I'm fortunate enough to still be playing softball with one. Marv turned 90 this winter and is still going strong, playing ball 4 mornings a week.......
I play cornhole with a WWII Army vet (Pacific) at our senior center. Simon is 99 and served on Guadalcanal and Iwo Jima. He was a BAR man. Said the Marines did all the heavy fighting, and the Army did the mopping up.
It’s interesting his hand got infected in the jungle and he was treated on the hospital ship, Solace, where my father-in-law served as a Pharmacist Mate. My father-in-law is 93.
