Patriot
Night: The Sequel
MA2 Jesse Trail, USN and
Nick Vetter.
 | They say a sequel is
never as good as the first time, but Keith Rahe,
founder and manager of the Ghost Players, made
sure everyone had a great time.
The
ghost's were back at Jenk Field at the
Dyersville Commercial Club Park as were the US
Military All Stars' baseball team. The stands
held friends, family and fans from near and far
-- all eager to celebrate the brave, the loyal,
and the free. Those Heroes of the Diamond are
truly heroes in our hearts.
If you weren't able to
be there, find out what you
missed...

Remembering
William Scherrman
Thank
you to all of you who have extended your best
wishes and remembrances for William Scherrman.
He lived a long life and will be missed by those
who knew and loved him. He was a great supporter
of the Ghost Players and of our
movie.
William P. Scherrman,
90.
 | "I was surprised when
Keith Rahe, the guru of the Ghost Players, asked
me to throw out the first pitch at Patriot Night
at the Ball Park. Keith has a special part
in his heart for his father, as I do for
mine. When I was walking out to the mound,
I heard the announcers Coach Rima and Matt
Wagner (Harry Carey) give tribute to my father
serving his country. I was in tears and
oh, so proud and thankful to Keith, his family,
and mine and to all the Ghost Players for giving
me the time of my life. I had a catch
with my Dad at the Field of Dreams back in the
90s. Before he died, he told me he was proud of
the things the Ghost Players have done and proud
of me. It doesn't get any better than
that." -Joe
