Military war vets in the Negro league

Sometimes we tend to forget how strong the men were who played in the Negro League. I mean, players like Mr. William "Skinny Legs" Blair, Jr, who served in the US Army and then played in the League too. Or Negro League player Johnny Washington, 77, has two Purple Hearts for his time in Korea. I am on a search for more players who served double duty for our country. They protected us and entertained us at the same time. We need to take the time out to at least say think you to this brave MEN!!!!
