I was already an adult when Mister Rogers first aired, but I still enjoyed his programs because of his sincerity. He loved the children off camera as well as on. Who will we call now when there is a disaster that frightens the children?
Jim, he was never in any branch of the military. That is just an unfounded rumor and has been proven false.
