THE LEGEND, Christopher Kraft has passed. May he rest in peace.

In 1942, Kraft began his studies at Virginia Tech and became a member of the Corps of Cadets. During his freshman year, he attempted to enlist in the military as a U.S. Navy cadet but was rejected because of a burned right hand that he had suffered at age three. Because of wartime demands, Virginia Tech was operating on a twelve-month schedule, and Kraft finished his degree in only two years. He graduated in December 1944 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Aeronautical Engineering.[8]

I will root for VaTech this college season.

Looks like the previous thread timed out while I was at work. Unfortunately, I can’t fix it from there, due to restrictions in place by our IT department.

 

How rude…
