My grandfather was a regular at the VFW in Tucson. There they nicknamed him "Rough Rider."
I wish I could have listened in on their "stories."

I believe my grandfather William D. Bates(Baits) was born with the Baits way of spelling, however at some time in his life began using the Bates spelling. His sons were all known as Bates. He was recorded Baits at his military enlistment.
