We didn’t enter World War II until 1941, but a lot of other countries had a big head-start on us.

Moe Berg’s story is a fascinating one; I’ve written about him (and Ted Williams) a few times before. Also, there was a ballplayer named Hank Gowdy who served in both world wars. Quite a few boxers and tons of football players served. I’d love to tell all 16 million stories, but after 80 years, so much has been lost to history.
