Lee Trevino:  When he turned 17, he enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps, and served four years. Part of his time was spent playing golf with Marine Corps officers. Trevino claims being a golf partner helped earn him promotion to lance corporal. He played successfully in Armed Forces golf events in Asia, where one rival was Orville Moody, who would follow Trevino to the PGA Tour in the late 1960s.

I'm a veteran. But I was never in "harms way". Here is a shout out to those in "Harms Way." They have my utter respect. Salute!

Pfft...bunch of guys who couldn't hack it in the real world, and chose the "structured life" option with the nice retirement.  













Kidding!  I come from a military family, and I'm more proud of my family that's been in harm's way fighting for my way of life while I play golf and work at a University than just about anyone else in my life.  A big thank you for anyone serving.  Come home safe.
