Charles served as a U.S. Army corporal during World War II and earned himself a Bronze Star for his great service to his country. Here he is at age 99 throwing out a first pitch at a Cardinals game. “That’s something that I never thought I’d be able to do,” he said.
“Nervous, what’s that,” he said. Something a person would expect to hear from a soldier who is a part the greatest generation that ever lived.
