Buddy Lewis: 1916 - 2011


"Everybody agreed he was the best transport pilot in the Burma war (WWII) theater. He set his big transport plane down on tiny strips that didn't look big enough for a mosquito to land on. And he did it while he was talking baseball to me." - Luke Sewell, St. Louis Browns manager

RIP
