[edit] Military rank

If Lou is a sergeant, why does this name tag identify him as a Colonel?

Lou Zocchi is also in the Mississippi State Guard which is basically the reserve to the national guard. It's comprised mostly of retired military. Lou holds the rank of colonel in that organization. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ehatem (talk • contribs) 20:26, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] the same person, or father and son ?

I'm a little confused. Certainly "Lou Zocchi" may be short for "Louis Zocchi" -- this "Lou Zocchi" article implies they are the same person. However, http://www.maa.org/editorial/mathgames/mathgames_05_16_05.html mentions that "Louis Zocchi" did a lot of high-precision work during WWII, but his son "Lou Zocchi" retired from the Air Force, designed the game Battle of Britain, and founded the company Gamescience to make high-precision dice. --68.0.120.35 01:13, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
