I just saw a clip on Mr. Rogers while watching PBS. Evidently there is a documentary out about him. I always thought it was a pretty lame TV show. Almost as bad as Captain Kangaroo. But, I got to thinking we could use a Mr. Rogers in our kids lives these days. I might just go see it.

Both he and Capt Kangaroo (Bob Keeshan) were Marines. Rogers always wore long sleeves to cover his Marine tattoos.

Mr. Rogers was an incredible guy who did incredible things...

...but he was never in the Marines, or indeed in any military branch at all...
