Description: Joe Louis (1914-1981), the "Brown Bomber," was a dominant boxing champion and a national hero. During World War II, Louis enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1942. While he did not see combat, he significantly contributed to the war effort by participating in 96 exhibition matches that boosted the morale of over two million troops. He also generously donated over $100,000 to Army and Navy relief funds. Rising to the rank of sergeant, Louis was awarded the Legion of Merit in 1945 for his "incalculable contribution to the general morale" of the military forces. His service, often conducted in a segregated military, further cemented his status as an icon who transcended the sport of boxing.
