Great pics in this minute slice of history in the U of I/ BSU rivalry game......Can you find yourself in any of these pics? Hat Tip to the Statesman for putting these out there.....
Is that Idaho Statesman's Mike Prater ( white pants, pink press pass), on the left, in pic #45?
On a serious note, I want to send a big Thank You to all of the troops, past and present, for their service!
My Grandfather, who just passed, was a engineer on one these landing crafts in the Pacific during the Bougainville landing. Had another Grandfather serve in WWII and the Korean War. Father served in Vietnam as well as my 2 uncles being lifer military men. God Bless them all!
