Good project, Bill.
Hank Bauer and Gil Hodges will no doubt be at the top or your list. Bauer was a Marine platoon sergeant who was wounded on Guam and Okinawa prior to being awarded the Bronze Star for heroism. Hodges served in the South Pacific for 18 months and got his Bronze Star just before returning home to play for the Dodgers.
