Default What American boxers saw combat in WWII?

A recent thread here noted that Lightweight/welterweight champ Barney Ross saw action as a Marine in the South Pacific, and was awarded a Silver Star for bravery. Now I wonder how many other American boxers actually experienced combat on the ground, in the air, or on the high seas. It’s something I’d to research thoroughly and report back. Your suggestions?
