Foggy Meadow: The Leroy Harris Story
Leroy Harris hailed from the quiet confines of West Feliciana Parish, where he spent his formative years in a small town, attending school until the age of 15. Like many young men of the 1950s, he made the bold decision to leave school behind and enlist in the army. From the very first moment he arrived at Fort Sam Houston, Leroy dedicated himself wholeheartedly to his military duties. Standing tall and lean, he sported a perpetual five o'clock shadow that seemed to defy his best efforts to tame it. With a wry smile, he often quipped, “The hardest enemy to capture was my razor,” lamenting, “It was never where I left it last!” His infectious humor endeared him to his fellow soldiers, and whenever the opportunity arose, he would join them for a game of baseball, showcasing a powerful southpaw swing that earned him the reputation of “owning the bat.”
