I know it's a old article but it points out a lot about the person. I'm sure his feeling for vets hadn't changed.

Absolutely, and we aren't getting suitable replacements. A truly funny guy but his humor was always based in real life.. Saw him at Murat downtown Indy, sat just outside the "blast zone". RIP Sir, you will be missed.\
For those of you that aren't familiar

Saw him at the Embassy Theater in Ft Wayne several years ago, Funny Stuff!

I like his number about the writing on light switches: "If it's on you can see it's on, if it's off it's too dark to read!"

Where I work at there is one of Gallagher's tables he used to smash Watermelon's in the lobby. The table was built in our shop and has a picture of Gallagher above it.

Saw one of his shows a few years ago and got to meet him. Funny funny guy.
