Asa Charles Ball-"Bud" to just about everyone who knew him-was a 22-year-old garage mechanic in 1950 when he was drafted into the Army to serve in Korea. A freewheeling personality, he didn't always play by the rules when he was in the Army, but he kept an eye out for his buddies and never forgot them.
