Mr. Rogers a Navy SEAL?

Kinda gives new meaning to the phrase "onward Christian soldiers."

  I agree with the urban legends thing, generally becuase there's a some sort of moral lesson/call to arms being backed up by a "fact."
  It's like the Mr. Rogers was a former Navy SEAL or Special OPS guy tall tale...I won't elaborate in respect of that great man...but some of you may know it.
