I did not know this--thanks!

To keep things rolling, I'll ask which U.S. President personally helped fight a fire that broke out in the Library of Congress?

Sorry, forgot about this. I'd give a hint, but 20 days is enough. It was Millard Fillmore.

The floor is open for anyone.

What do Machine Gun Kelly, Joe Tinker, Mike Douglas, and Ingrid Bergman have in common?

I will add a couple of additional names in 24 hours, but will leave no other hints. I am thinking about not having a time limit on this one.

A couple of extra names that also have this in common: Betty Friedan and Bob Moose. Then there is a former Premier of Tasmania, Sir James Milne Wilson, who takes this to another level entirely.

No time limit. A small amount of Wikipedia research will reveal the answer. But I will require not only the correct answer, but the next trivia question to be asked. Anything less will be refused as incomplete.

This was pretty cool--thanks for posting it. Because I did the last one, I'll give someone else a chance by adding the only other one of which I am aware: Shakespeare (at least allegedly).

Death Dealer's correct, it was a BB question. Third clue was "New York state"

Also, the question included the year 1851, which is immensely more help to this Presidential Dollars collector than whichever states said Presidents come from

Times up...

The first U.S. fighter to shoot down a German bomber was the Lockheed P-38. The Lightning shot down a Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Condor on August 14, 1942 near Iceland.

Somebody jump on in...

Well, hell. Could it possibly be the same player that holds the record for career intentional walks? :o

Do you mean a batter getting the intentional walk?

Or a pitcher who committed the most intentional walks?

Batter.
