@NVHArchive – If I told you that Marine SSgt. Ed Smith was 95 when we interviewed him you would say that I was lying. We drove 1,741 miles one way to get this one interview and boy was it a worthwhile experience. Ed is a great storyteller with a sharp mind and a quick sense of humor. He’s a poor New York kid who pulled himself up to live a remarkable life. He joined the Marines to do his part and wound up in a sports platoon where he did his fighting on a baseball field. He was nominated for a Pulitzer while working for Newsday, has a great Branch Rickey story, and was on the short list for becoming President Ford’s Press Secretary. Take a moment to hear this story. It’s like a good book that you can’t put down. What a great day we had with Ed and his family.
