Coach Frank Allocco tells of this inspirational story:
“The Courage of Sacrifice” tells the story of Don Holleder and the lessons learned “on the fields of friendly strife.” An All-American and War Hero, Major Holleder was the consummate teammate and a selfless leader who always put himself second for the “good of the team.” His story continues to inspire generations of leaders at the United States Military Academy. I hope you will consider sharing with your coaches and players."
