LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Former TV game show host Bob Barker is donating $2 million to a charity that helps injured members of the military and their families.
The former host of "The Price is Right" will donate to the Semper Fi Fund, which assists Marines, soldiers, sailors, and Air Force and Coast Guard members who are injured during service.

I always felt the protest to oil exploration was disingenuous. Don't disturb the whales, we are trying to kill them. We want to preserve our heritage, using petroleum fueled boats and explosive harpoons.
Bob Barker was not, I repeat not a Marine!
He was a junior officer in the U. S. Navy and trained to fly Corsairs. The war ended before he went to sea.
He served post-war as a naval aviator in the United States Naval Reserve until circa 1960.
