Inspectorjoe Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 I'd never heard of John Finn before and I'd guess that no one else here has either. He died Thursday at the age of 100. Rachel Maddow told his story the other night. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26315908/#37390386 Makes me wonder how many other John Finn's I've met in life, but never realized it.

Jim Katen Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 . . . Makes me wonder how many other John Finn's I've met in life, but never realized it. A whole bunch. There are also a whole bunch of guys who did equally heroic things and didn't make it out to live to 100. We celebrate their sacrifices every year by having bar-b-ques. Go figure. - Jim Katen, Oregon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
