Wish Martha Stewart was My Sister!

Moe Berg, I think. I saw him on one of those long, pinterest boards yesterday but couldn't find this exact photo. His story in wiki is exciting and sad, both.
Okay, I just found this too, which is really cool: Posted Image Edited by barb43, October 31, 2016, 8:03 pm.

That's right, Moe Berg. We're really blowing through this game the past day or so! |

:heh I know, surprisingly. I commented on that to Sweetie this evening and he shook his head and shrugged. Occasionally if I don't know somebody, I'll ask him if he has any idea. Occasionally he does, but not too often. And he's soooo not into baseball - his eyes glaze over if I talk baseball. :lol I had a really good time looking on pinterest and some history sites at WWII and Korean war vets who ended up as movie stars and sports stars after the war so I've got some of those in my head at the moment. I'll post somebody tomorrow. Edited by barb43, October 31, 2016, 9:59 pm.

Okay, since he doesn't look like Juan Terry Trippe, the only other person I can guess is Eddie Rickenbacker. -?- |

No, you're very cold. 1930s. edit: I just discovered that this picture is misidentified on at least 2 web sites as the husband of a very famous woman. Our guy was married, twice, but neither wife was the least bit famous. Edited by Blackjack, November 5, 2016, 12:16 pm.

Not Lindberg. Two people were involved in what our guy is most remembered for. He was not the principal character. Edited by Blackjack, November 5, 2016, 4:04 pm.

Is this Harold Gatty? There were some really brilliant and colorful characters in the Golden Age of Aviation! Been reading short bios on them (and their antics :wink ). Edited by barb43, November 6, 2016, 11:26 am.

Lt Cmdr Richard E. Byrd? |

No, not Byrd. This is a hard one. Hard because any decent clue would give it away immediately. There is enough, though, in the previous clues, including my edit, to find him. You may have to read a few articles.
