Hawaii's Senator Daniel Inouye is dead, at 88.
story He was never one to seek the spotlight, but the US has seldom had a finer defender, leader, and servant. I recall my father, who was a boy during WW II and hated 'Japs', speaking highly of the man despite his Japanese ancestry; a Congressional Medal of Honor winner, my dad called him a true American.
Our nation is poorer for his loss.
