“I stood among the graves today and swept the scene with sight.
“And the corps of men who lay beneath looked up to say good night.
“The thunder still, the battle done, the fray has passed them by;
“And as they rest forever more, they must be asking, ‘Why?’”

Johnny Most

As an aerial gunner on a B-24 Liberator he flew 28 combat missions with the 15th Air Force in World War II, earning seven medals.


I still remember that day in Buffalo prior to a C's game back in the mid 70's and having the chance to speak with this man.

And every day we lose so many like him, and we owe them all so much.
