Combat! 'A Day In June'. - Season 1, Episode 11: (1962) Saunders recollects for the men, through flashback, the story of 1St Squad on June 6, 1944. Hanley was still a sargeant, as was Saunders. Saunders carried an M1 Garand and no helmet camo. Caje was refered to as 'Caddy'. Shecky...
I'm the guy that posted the "taxpayer's dime" comment. What it speak's about me is simply this; if you're going to make your living by taking taxpayer's money as your income, you are a public servant. Being involved in a public works project like a moon shot is no exception. If you don't want...
My Dad's 1950's Penny's 'Marathon' which I inherited in 1966. When I was a kid it came down over my ears, now it would just sit on the top of my head. I find it inconceivable that my head is so much larger than my Dad's' now, as an adult!

Well, I'm going to say it - If this was anyone other that a federal bureaucrat like 'Buzz' Aldrin, he would have been arrested immediately, prosecuted and sentenced for assault - just as you or I would have. For a judge to throw this out is, in actuality, a miscarriage of justice. The rule of...

Few know that Phyllis Diller was on a Playboy Magazine centerfold. It is true - May, 1971. She actually showed her backside on Johnny Carson one night when the magazine came out. There she was, just as she cackled, on the backside of the Playboy centerfold!
R.I.P. Phyllis Diller...
Which prompts the question why Mellish didn't fix his bayonet to his M1 as soon as he knew he was out of ammo?
He could have had the jump on the kraut as soon as he appeared in the doorway and changed his own fate. This
is a question that has haunted my since the premiere of 'Saving...
I first read about 'My Gal Sal' in the LIFE Magazine article of 1964. It sat on the ice for 53 years before it was salvaged for restoration. That restoration is continuing but it looks like the memorial planned in Blue Ash, Ohio has been canceled - apparently for political reasons. Here is...
