UK Basketball Players in the Military

Jon Scott has one of the coolest sites out there. It is full of such great information, especially little tidbits like this. He has compiled a list of all former UK basketball players to serve in the Armed Forces. I figured there wouldn't be a more relevant post on Memorial Day than one honoring servicemen who suited up for Kentucky as well as the United States. For the most part, these men were from a different decade but it's still something cool to check out post barbeque.
He also has profiles of the former players who were killed in action.
God Bless America.
