WWII Veteran
As one not a fan of comics or superheros, I read Stan's obit anyway because of his notoriety and fame. I found out today he was a veteran of WWII.
"Lee’s death falls on Veterans Day, which is fitting as he served in World War II with the U.S. Army Signal Corps from 1942 to 1945. Lee reportedly enlisted in the military shortly after hearing about the attack on Pearl Harbor."
