"Slaughterhouse Five" POWs in box car segment...

[L. Kafka]

It's February 1945 and a train load of American POWs are heading to Dresden. While a number of GIs are groaning about the cold, one older looking GI remarks, "Cold? This is nothing. Troy (New York) in '37, that was cold." The character mentions Troy in '37 once of twice more, but none of the GIs respond. Moments later, Billy the central character of the story looks over at the GI from Troy, New York and he is gone, a victim of hypothermia.

Does anyone know who the actor was that played the GI from Troy, New York?

I thought the victim was from or named Wyoming something or other?

Must be a Panther fan!

...but having been born in Detroit and lived there most of my life, I'm still a Lions fan. Lions and Panthers. Different cats that poop in different woods.

They both give you the same results!
