RIP hero!

No matter your politics, to those of us of a certain age, Glenn was a badass.  RIP.

Heard an amazing part of his bio yesterday, as there are many by this great pioneer.

But apparently his parents and his wife's parents  were members together in some social club(can't recall the name),... And Glenn and his wife were toddler mates during these gatherings.  They grew up together and were married in '43 before he shipped off to war.

Unbelievable!
