I read Sammy’s book. It was so sad the things he went through. When they all played in Vegas he couldn’t stay there at the hotel and he wasn’t allowed to go through the front door. The only one of the rat pack who said anything was Dean Martin. He lost his eye while in the service. Not from the war but from the white guys who beat him constantly and the officers wouldn’t do anything about it. Sammy never complained cause he knew he’d get it worse. He married a beautiful white lady from another country I only remember the name Britt. He got beat up in Florida for being married to her. He was a wonderful entertainer and a great person.
