Like many rumors, this one (that Mister Rogers was a military sniper) is of unknown origin. However, it does stem from the internet (where many a rumor is spawned). Prior to the freewheeling anonymity of the internet there was no apparent rumor concerning Mister Rogers's military career. In fact, it is well known that Fred McFeeley Rogers was never in the military at all. He was a soft-spoken preacher who hosted a children's TV show, which is probably why some idiot posted the "killer" label on Mister R.

Don't waste time looking into this nonsense. Rather, watch a few of Mister Rogers's programs. You may actually learn something worthwhile to know.

Fred Rogers (1928-2003) was red/green colorblind, and as such would not have qualified for military service.

Mr. Rogers did not serve in the military. He was an ordained minister. There were no breaks in his school and work record that would have allowed him to serve in the military.
