Yea!

I found an article on Avadanian and his legacy as a Red Sox fan at http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/chronicle/archive/2004/10/28/SPGT09HQPF1.DTL

Evidentltly, from what he says in the above article, he has just undergone Surgery for cancer. I hope everything went well.

Here are a couple more on him;

A NATICK press release on the dedication of a room to the WWII PAratrooper: http://www.natick.army.mil/about/pao/2002/02-60.htm . Interesting that Avadanian is identified as a WWII vet with no real elaboration on his carreer as a Paratrooper with the 505th.
