James Cuzzolina II (aka Pop Pop) threw out the first pitch on Saturday Night in honor of World War II veterans.

Our poster TheLastDon here on Halos Heaven is his grandson. Jeff Mathis was reportedly impressed with Pop Pop's knee-bending slider.

The Greatest Generation.
Without them, I hesitate to think of where our world would be…

There is really no overstating this

It should be overstated...

I am currently reading the book...
…just reading about their exploits – like this guy – helps me realize how incredibly fortunate I have been in so many ways.

Pop Pop is a true American hero.
One of my fears for this country is that the contributions made by that generation will be forgotten as each member passes away.
