Jumping right in: President Harry S. Truman. We’ll start with the basics, or ‘the things I don’t have to look at Wikipedia to know’. Harry was the 33rd president, he manned up when FDR died during his term. He was serving as our nation’s Vice President at the time, because, you know, that’s how it works. He is well known for having the middle initial ‘S’ which stood for nothing. Apparently several of the men in his family had surnames and nicknames starting with ‘S’, so thats all he got. The asshole reading him the oath of office (Harlan Stone) assigned him the name Harry Shipp Truman. Nice try, WRONG. Totally screwed up the oath of office. Also, he was almost assasinated by Cuban Nationalists. Which makes him kind of a badass for surviving.
