Presbyterian Pastor who helped get "under God" in Pledge dies

AP:

The Rev. George M. Docherty was 97.

On Feb. 7, 1954, Rev. Docherty delivered it again after learning that President Dwight Eisenhower would be at the church.

Congress inserted the words a few months later. Wikipedia has much more info.
