Test #3 - I am a famous sailor, who am I?

[Craig]

I am a famous sailor, who am I?
(I bet this is the 1st time you've ever hear this)

- I am a U.S. Sailor.

- I grew up in Mooreville, Indiana. As a teenager I was a troublemaker.

- When two police officers who wanted to question me about the pistol I was
carrying, I gave a false name, slipped out of the overcoat one officer had
grabbed, and ran. The cops fired seven shots at me.

- To get out of town quick, I went to the Federal Building and signed up for the Navy.

- The Navy was use to taking in wayward youth, and knew time was often of the
essence in getting kids out of town. They accommodated me by shipping me to
Great Lakes Training Station a mere four days later.

- Newly uniformed, I completed basic training , and was assigned to the battleship
USS Utah as a fireman, third class. Which meant I shoveled coal into the ship’s huge
boilers.

- After 22 days of hot, backbreaking labor, I had enough. I jumped ship in Boston and
went AWOL for a day, to cool off. Upon my return, a deck court martial stamped on Nov. 7
was added to my growing rap sheet along with an $18 fine, — nearly a month’s pay – and
a ten-day “bread and water” stint in the brig.

- A delay in carrying out the sentence gave me the opportunity to get into even more
trouble. On Nov. 9, instead of laying low, I left my duty post “without authority” and
“in disobedience of orders.” Five days of solitary confinement were tacked onto this
previous sentence. If anything, this made me more rebellious. Weeks after my release, I
was in hot water again, failing to return from a 24-hour leave as scheduled on Dec. 3.
The Navy, noting that he “left with no effects — intentions not known,” waited two
weeks, then listed me as a deserter. They also slapped the first ever bounty on my
head, fifty dollars.

- I ended up getting a Dishonorable Discharge from the Navy.

- Most people would never have thought I was in the Navy, because I'm much more famous
for being a Bank robber.

- It is alledged that I was also a murderer, however the police shot and killed me before
I could be convicted.

- I loved women, and I was a womanizer, however, I hate women who wear red!

- It is believe by many people that I was INCREDIBLY well-endowed (if you know what I mean).
Every week someone writes the Smithsonian asking if they (the Smithsonian) has my “anatomy”.
Pictures speak 1000's words, my death bed photo's is "hard" to dispute.!

Who am I?

Hint: It's not the Dos Equis guy who is "The most interesting man in the world"..... "I don't
always drink beer, but when I do, I prefer Dos Equis".... "Stay thirsty my friends"

Answer:

I am John Dillinger, Bank Robber and womanizer, and United States Navy Sailor!

(Since he went to Great Lakes for boot camp, I know you'll be thinking "wow, this guy was actually there.")

The comment about can't standing women who wears red is because of this:
The Bureau of Investigation (BOI, precursor of the FBI) Chief J. Edgar Hoover created a
special task force headquartered in Chicago to locate Dillinger. On July 21 a madam from
a brothel in Gary, Indiana, Ana Cumpănaş, also known as Anna Sage, contacted the police.
She was a Romanian immigrant threatened with deportation for "low moral character", and
offered the BOI information on Dillinger in exchange for their help in preventing her
deportation. The BOI agreed to her terms.

Cumpănaş told them that Dillinger was spending his time with another prostitute, Polly Hamilton, and that she and the couple would be going to see a movie together on the following day. She agreed to wear an orange dress, which appeared red in the lights of the theater, so that police could easily identify her at the theater. She was unsure which theater they would be attending, but told the BOI the name of the two theaters, the Biograph and the Marbro, in which they would potentially be.

A team of both BOI agents and officers from police forces outside Chicago was formed. Chicago
police officers were excluded because it was felt that the Chicago police had been compromised
and could not be trusted. Not chancing another embarrassing escape, the police were split
into two teams.

On July 22, one team was sent to the Marbro Theater on the city's West Side, while another team surrounded the Biograph Theater at 2433 N. Lincoln Avenue on the North Side. During the stakeout, the Biograph's manager thought the agents were criminals setting up a robbery. He called the Chicago police who dutifully responded and had to be waved off by the BOI, who told them that they were on a stakeout for an important target. Dillinger attended the film Manhattan Melodrama at the Biograph Theater in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood. Dillinger was with his girlfriend, Polly Hamilton, and Ana Cumpănaş. Once they determined that Dillinger was in the theater, the lead agent (Samuel A. Cowley) contacted J. Edgar Hoover for instructions, who recommended that they wait outside rather than risk a gun battle in a crowded theater. He also told the agents not to put themselves in harm's way, and that any man could open fire on Dillinger at the first sign of resistance.

When the movie let out, Special Agent Melvin Purvis stood by the front door and signaled Dillinger's exit by lighting a cigar. Both he and the agents reported that Dillinger turned his head and looked directly at the agent as he walked by, glanced across the street, then moved ahead of his female companions, reached into his pocket but failed to extract his gun, and ran into a nearby alley.

Three agents opened fire, firing five shots. Dillinger was hit from behind and he fell face first
to the ground. Two female bystanders were slightly wounded in the legs and buttocks by flying
bullet and brick fragments. Dillinger was struck three times, twice in the chest, one actually
nicking his heart, and the fatal shot, which entered the back of his neck and exited just under
his right eye. An ambulance was summoned, though it was clear that Dillinger had quickly died
from his gunshot wounds. At 10:50 p.m. on July 22, 1934, John Dillinger was pronounced dead
at Alexian Brothers Hospital. According to the BOI, Dillinger died without saying a word.
There were also reports of people dipping their handkerchiefs and skirts into the pools of blood
that had formed as Dillinger lay in the alley in order to secure keepsakes of the entire affair.
Dillinger's body was displayed to the public at the Cook County morgue after his death. Dillinger
is buried at Crown Hill Cemetery (Section: 44 Lot: 94) in Indianapolis.
