Goodbye Mickey Rooney
Sunday April 6th was sad. We lost Mickey Rooney. Besides his many decades of stardom, Tech Sergeant Rooney was a WWII AFN vet.

In 1944 he enlisted and spent 21 months in the army. He was awarded the Bronze Star for entertaining troops in combat areas.
Goodbye Mickey and thank you.
