coolest obituary EVER

one quote from it.

In Paris Fawcett also took part in the rescue of a group of British prisoners-of-war who had been placed under French guard in a hospital ward by the Germans. By impersonating a German ambulance crew, Fawcett and a comrade marched in at 4am and ordered the French nurses to usher the PoWs out into the yard. "Gentlemen," he announced as he drove them away, "consider yourself liberated."

"You're a Yank," said a British voice.

"Never," came Fawcett's lilting southern burr, "confuse a Virginian with a Yankee."

Does anyone else get a wonderful image of a great nipple every time the word Fawcett shows up?

He had a good run, didn't he? I like that quote, too, but, in the picture, he's wearing the uniform of a Union Officer.

that was ACTING...

(insert that annoying voice from the SNL skit from the 90's)

My favorite quote was

By his own account, when he was 15 Fawcett had started an affair with his best friend's mother. "If that's child molestation," he declared, "I would wish this curse on every young boy."
