I'd put Cpl. Rubin right up there with another Super Jew of fame, Mo Berg.
Tinker, Tailor, Baseball Player, Soldier, Spy.

In spite of his ordeals as a POW he continued to give encouragement (dar animos) to his fellow prisoners. He used his experiences in the Nazi camps to help him survive and to give support to the other POWs.
I have no words to adequately express my admiration for the man.

Mr. Rubin has died.
http://thisainthell.us/blog/?p=63173...omment-2749454 While I'm not a NYT fan, they often have interesting info in obituaries. I have no idea if the anti-semitism claims are correct; but there was apparently a big brouhaha over Jewish vets maybe having been denied recognition in some cases. I didn't know anything about that. Too bad that become a centerpiece of his obituary. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/09/us...tism.html?_r=0 The key thing is, a warrior and hero has passed on. RIP, Mr. Rubin. כל כבוד. edit: I think the LA Times obit is better. http://www.latimes.com/local/obituar...208-story.html Last edited by Medic09; 9 December 2015 at 15:25.
