Famous Veteran: Mel Brooks - US Army

"I was a Combat Engineer. Isn’t that ridiculous? The two things I hate most in the world are combat and engineering." -- Mel Brooks​

Mel Brooks (b. 1926) is an American director, writer, actor, and producer known as a creator of film classics, including “Blazing Saddles."​

Brooks was drafted into the Army during WWII and served as a combat engineer. One of his tasks was to defuse land mines, and he also fought in the Battle of the Bulge.​

When the Germans played propaganda over loudspeakers, Brooks set up his own sound system and played music by Al Jolson - a Jewish musician​
