He sucked in his last year as an Astro. Good career though.

His specialty was dealing with the heater, never could solve the off speed stuff

I met Mr. Williams at DFW when he and others flew in for the Gainesville, Tx MOH Weak 5 years ago. Super guy, as sharp as a tack. Woody was so small that the Army wouldn't take him so he joined the Marines.
We lost a good one.

Ironically Audie Murphy was so small the Marines wouldn't take him so he joined the Army.

Is this still a thing? A person can be too small for the army but not the marines? And why?

This guy probably had nightmares about what he did and saw for over 75 years.
