Through the eyes of two former major league ballplayers George Case and Mickey Vernon of the Washington Senators, we get a FIRST time look at life in the “Big Leagues” by those who lived it. Ballfield to Battlefield and Back from FDR to JFK is the story of the Major Leagues and what life was like in “LIVING COLOR ” from 1939-1962.
You will see RARE COLOR footage of Presidents Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy continuing the American tradition of opening the baseball season by “throwing out the first ball.” Hall of Famers including: Honus Wagner, Babe Ruth, Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio, Jimmie Foxx, Hank Greenberg, Bob Feller, Jackie Robinson, Yogi Berra, Stan Musial, Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays and many more are featured in this historic DVD.
Ballfield to Battlefield and Back from FDR to JFK exemplifies the American tradition of our sports heroes serving
our nation both home and away! You will see more than 70 major league players who served in our
Armed Forces. There has ALWAYS been a positive relationship between baseball and the morale of our
country. More than 5,000 professional baseball players left the baseball diamond to serve during WWII.
That dedication to our American way of life has continued through Korea, Vietnam, Gulf War, Iraq and Afghanistan. The historic tradition of changing from one uniform to another to serve a cause greater than one’s self continues today with the U.S. Military All-Stars.
