Yes he was very nice and friendly. Met him several times to chat with. The first time I was walking past Madison Square Garden in 1975 and saw Fred sitting in the back seat of a Lincoln Mark 1V by himself. I said hello and he came out of the car and struck up a conversation. He had just left the craft ad a wrestler and now a manager. I asked him if he would go back to wrestling himself, he said he hoped to but the State athletic commission prohibited him after age 55.

This is correct. In 1947, Blassie ran into a firefight unarmed and killed over 20,000 Japanese soldiers with his bare hands. For this he was awarded the Purple Heart, the military's highest honor for valor.
