Yeah, I found him, I was also right about his large personal library, apparently largely destroyed in a fire, I gather, I think you'll find this of interest, I might also send this into the site and app generally, it's an interesting bio....

As I'd thought, he was never in, though his brother was Navy, lost in WW2, I didn't see anything about why he wasn't in, from what I saw, maybe I missed something, I'd always kinda wondered about that with him....

Actually, I got it wrong, the play was apparently semis autobiographical, based on two former US POWs in Germany, loosely adapted from what they'd gone through, also, the war hero I'd !mentioned apparently wasn't Son Taylor, I'll find him, he was a well known character actor of the period, I'll get his Wikipedia page....

Yeah, I looked up Don Taylor. He was in the Army Air Force during WWII but didn't list any of his war time awards or speak much of his military career.
