“[Rosie] wasn't much of a soldier. Instead of returning a salute, he smiled and waved. The story was that he had played football with the writer Irwin Shaw at Brooklyn College, but he certainly didn't look like an athlete. He walked with his toes turned in. He never really fit a uniform. No 100-mission crush hat for him; he usually went bareheaded. He and Butch Rovegno, the Group Engineering Officer, argued a lot about who was the ugliest man on the base.”
— an excerpt from Harry Crosby’s memoir, A Wing and a Prayer
