Dave and Boyd (aka Twiddle dee dee and Twiddle dee dum)
Unfortunately, an original GAR member, who was visiting the ol' fort, tragically fell to
his death
when he accidentally rolled his wheelchair down the tall stairs. Witnesses state several
shouted
to him to stop, however, since he did not have his ear horn in place, the warnings
