Famous Faces Who Served: a free online word search

Famous veterans word search, free and printable, with the movie stars and ballplayers who put on a uniform when the country called.

About Famous Faces Who Served

Hollywood and the ballparks sent a remarkable number of their own to war. Ted Williams flew as a Marine pilot, Yogi Berra was on a rocket boat off Normandy on D-Day, and Jimmy Stewart flew bombers over Europe and stayed in the Air Force Reserve long after, retiring as a brigadier general. Their stories are worth a second look, once the cheering stops and the service is what's left.
