Remembering Staff Sergeant 'Elmer' Wright, killed in the first few moments of the landing at Omaha Beach. A member of the St Louis Browns organisation, he had won the ETO World Series in 1943 with the regimental ball team, the Plymouth Yankees.

Whatever bad things happened between us at WW2, you can blame action, but not rising sun flag🌅, which has been there way before as a symbol of friendship.
