Interesting post.
Another TV / military connection I always found interesting was the story of Donald Bellisario, producer of Magnum, PI, Airwolf, Quantum Leap, JAG, and NCIS. He served in the Marines with Lee Oswald.
A baseball / military story I like is the one about Pirates Hall-of-Famer, Roberto Clemente. He served 6 years as a weekend warrior in the Marine Corps Reserve.
