For Freepers too young to remember, Leon was on a retirement cruise with his wife when a team of terrorists took over the ship and demanded that all Jews, Americans and British on board volunteer themselves as hostages.

Most cowered or hid. Leon stepped forward and proudly identified himself as both a Jew and an American. He probably saved the lives of many others in that category by doing so.

Thanks for the reminder....for those who may not remember, or have known. I remember it...was young, but I do remember.

RIP Mr Klinghoffer, brave soul.
