Ted Sprouse was a Korean War POW from Drakesville, Iowa. Ted was an outstanding baseball player and before his unit was sent to Korea was selected to play on the Indianhead artillery team DIVARITY. He was so good that he was invited to recruit-training camp in San Francisco by the then still New York Giants and received a bunch of tips from major leaguers. While serving Ted befriended a Native-American named Don Cloud. A fellow sergeant, Cloud and Sprouse were in the 2nd Infantry Division (Indianhead) 38th Field Artillery.
