I love this story, thanks for sharing. This warrior reminds me of my father, who served in Patton's 3rd Army in WWII. My brother was a Marine during Vietnam, my wife and I both Army Officers in the 80-90's, and my daughter starts the US Military Academy on June 27th. There's nothing better than a life served for freedom, humanity, and most importantly, honor.

Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward. Wisdom comes with age! Sometimes age comes alone..

Watching the video, you think the first shot is luck, then WOW! , two more within a hand spread from the first. That's no fluke, the guy can still shoot. No wonder they gave him the hat!
