Happy birthday, Somerset statesman John Sherman Cooper. What a life. "At the age of forty-one, Cooper enlisted in the U.S. army as a private and was commissioned a second lieutenant in 1943. He served with Gen. George Patton's 3d Army in France, Luxembourg, and Germany. After the war, Captain Cooper headed the reorganization of the German judicial system in Bavaria and served as legal adviser for the repatriation of displaced persons in the 3d Army occupation zone." And that's only one of eight interesting Kentucky Encyclopedia paragraphs on this man's life.
