Bell Ringer 9/8

     This article is about a WWII veteran and the life he lived and now lives.  Fred Mayer was born into a Jewish family and fled to New York just one year before Hitler started prosecuting them.  He then joined the U.S. Army.  He also participated the Operation Greenup which allowed him to become a spy in Austria.  He was not only a incredible soldier for the army but a beneficial partner in the OSS.  Some have tried to get him an Medal of Honor for his work from the secretary of defense.
