Arguably two of the most iconic Americans during the 20th century who were not Presidents both passed away on this very date.
George Herman "Babe" Ruth - One of the all-time baseball greats died on August 16th in 1948, some 76 years ago, at the young age of 53.
And on this date in 1977 Elvis Aron Presley passed away, 47 years ago. I can still remember exactly where I was when the announcement came over the radio about his death.
