Your Random D-Back: Stryker Trahan

My parents, after yet another washed away summer vacation in The Netherlands because of all the rain, decided from 1988 and forward to spend every summer in France. Most of the times we went to Normandy and Brittany, that was still doable in a day. When I read that today’s random D-Back hails from Lafayette, I had to think immediately of those summers. As I recall, Lafayette was a department store in France and after looking it up, my memories were indeed correct. I was a bit surprised to find out that there is a town in the USA called Lafayette, although placed in Louisiana it doesn’t surprise that much, because there is obviously some French link.
