[Magdalen] RIP Ali, 74.

[M J _Mike_ Logsdon]

>>>RIP indeed. Just listened to a brief NPR eulogy. Many aspects of his life stand out - I still remember when he went to jail when he refused to go to Vietnam after he claimed consciousness objector status having become a Muslim. The country thought it was just another stunt perhaps but it was a defining moment of his life and lifetime. This incident was not mentioned in the eulogy- perhaps perceived as a negative.<<<

Definitely being mentioned today.

Medal of Honor, indeed.  (Thanks, George!)
