It was August 31st, 1969. I was in Grade School in Festina, Iowa. My Dad told Me that Rocky Marciano died in a plane crash down by Newton, Iowa. Marciano was the only Heavey-weight champion to retire undefeated. He was 49-0 with 43 knockouts. He was drafted into the US Army in 1943 and Loaded ships in Southern England ( Wales) bound for The War. After WWII, He served the remainder of His hitch at Fort Lewis, Washington. He Turned 46 on August 30th, 1969. Shout out to US Army Veteran The Great Rocky Marciano.
