Donald Buck

Hockey Codes

Donald Eaton Buck, born on September 26, 1916 and died on June 3, 2002, was an American field hockey player who competed in the men's tournament at the 1948 Summer Olympics. He graduated from Johns Hopkins University, where he was on the football, wrestling and lacrosse teams. He served as an officer in the United States Army Air Forces and deployed overseas in 1944 to the India-Burma theater of operations, returning in 1945. The Wikipedia article is brief and does not give his Olympic result, his club career or his later life, and it lists Olympedia and Find a Grave as external links, so those are the places a later depth pass should look for the missing details.
