Gene Roddenberry
Some people are made to be great, no matter what the circumstances. After graduating from Angeles City College in 1942, Gene Roddenberry enlisted in the Air Force and served in the 394th Bomb Squadron of the Air Force. Only years later would he bring to the world the magic of Star Trek.
Jesse Ventura
Trust me when I tell you that Jesse Ventura is anything but a “fake” fighter like on WWE. He actually used to be a Navy SEAL and served time in the Philippines during one of America’s most notorious wars – the Vietnam War.
