'The New York Giants lost a good man.'- Andrew Jackson Lummus, Leutnant/USMC, MOH

I read of him from good sports article- it details some famous US sporting-Men who are KIA during military service:

To be clear- the sporting background gives them no special status over others KIA. But it was good writing for sports-writer on US Memorial Day in my opinion.
