Yes this will be really off the wall, but considering the knowledge base and connections on TD as a whole, one never knows.

Did J.M. Stagg and Nash Roberts ever meet each other? It would have had to been after the end of WW2 because Stagg was in the UK and Nash served in the Navy in the Pacific.

This is something that would be a nice bit of trivia to memorialize in the WW2 museum if it ever took place.

For those who don't know Group Captain J.M. Stagg was Eisenhower's weatherman that made the correct call about D Day weather. Nash was a New Orleans institution first on WDSU and later on with WWL. He made the correct call about Hurricane Betsy among other things.

Also made the right call on Katrina. He usually didn't evacuate. When he did, so did all his neighbors.
