Speidel was commended by the
Chief of Naval Personnel for “ex
ceptionally outstanding service”
as an officer in charge of fleet

Many stories are told of Char
lie's early life, including the one
when he weathered a career in
the ring as a boxer unmarked,
but when he turned to profes
sional wrestling, he received a
flattened nose and a cauliflower
ear.
Weighing at that time only
125-130 pounds, he was thrown
out of the ring and landed on
his nose, but he still adds today.
"I thought I was a belter wrest
ler than I was a boxer.”
The wily mentor was bom in
Elizabeth, N.J., and received his
degree from Panzer College, then
of Newark, N.J. He worked his
way through college by teaching
wrestling and physi-al education
in high schools.
