The thing about Ted Williams is that although he was in both WW2 and the Korean war, he only saw action in Korea. He spent WW2 on training missions (nothing wrong with that, just that the war ended). If you want to take the leap to Ford Frick award winners (a section of the Hall of Fame that some collectors, me included, collect as hall of famers) I would include announcer Jerry Coleman. Kind of a goofy, Phil Rizzutto type of announcer, but he was one heck of a war hero...and he actually flew mission in both WW2 and Korea.
