Harmon Kravitz was one of those rare people who lit up a room upon his entrance. Unlike Ed SUllivan who according to comic Alan King, brightened up a room upon his exit! Sense of humor made me most talk about Harmon, he had trivails and sufferings but always seemed to have a comic sense of humor in which the joke was always on him! We somehow were kibbutzing about world war 2 and how my uncle Harvey was such a brave man, who was a turret gunner [least able to survive a crash or get out with a parachute.] Harmon said he was a [cook] and some how not so much a hero. "Harmon, I told him, you were a hero because cooks could still be killed, at any time, by the Nazis!" He smiled a little bit and said, "I guess in that way we were all heros."
