The name "Trail Blazers" is rooted much deeper in Oregon - and American - history, having served our country 70 years ago in World War II.

That's cool. Camp Adair is just a few miles from my house. I never knew they were the Trail Blazers.

Repped! Great little piece of history, so we now know that Nico could have some distant love child Blazer blood from a grandparent back in the day!
