The voice of OCS Lt Green, Cy Grant, has died. Unbelievably, he was 90 years old. He certainly didn't look (or sound!) that old when he appeared at the last Fanderson convention.

What sad news. He certainly didn't seem that age at all.

However, it's nice to know he will always be the young Lt Green to all OCS fans - its a bit of a shame that his voice artistry in that capacity wasn't mentioned in the news report.

R.I.P,. Mr Grant.

This is sad news indeed. And Skybase Girl is right: his legacy will live on for many years to come.

Rest in Peace, Cy Grant. And a huge thank you.
