After a year in pro ball, he served in the Marines 1942-43-44-45 and won a Purple Heart. In '46 at Quincy, Hank hit .323 and .313 at Kansas City in '47. The Yanks brought him up at the end of the '48 season after he hit .305, 23 Homers and drove in 100 runs at Kansas City. As a Yankee, in 1949 and '50, he hit .272 and .320.
