Famous WW2 Quote
"I have returned. By the grace of Almighty God, our forces stand again on Philippine soil."General Douglas MacArthur at Leyte, 17 Oct 1944

Handling the can are Vern Stephens (left), 8-time All-Star shortstop with the St. Louis Browns, and Vince DiMaggio, 2-time All-Star outfielder with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Standing is George Stovall, retired player and manager for the Kansas City Packers. Apparently, these players worked at the shipyard during the off-season since neither of them missed many games during the war years.
