    80 years old! I would have guest 40! Such a strong and humble man! Thank you for your actions that saved other Marines and for your service to our great country!

      40? I wouldn't go that far but def a healthy 80 look, I'd say 65 max!

    No one who is awarded the medal of honor wants it. Tells a story in itself.

    My Great Great Grandpa applied aid to 8 men than walked 2.5 miles with 1 man on his back at a time until all were safe under intense fire. Got the second highest award

    John Canley, I'm humbled to be your fellow American. Thank you for your unbelievable example. Your brothers in uniform were honored at the highest level by you covering their '6'. You sir set that bar high. All the best hero!!

      That's oorahh were not Navy SEALS lol. Marines are a special breed of men, and women that ordinary people will never understand the blood spilled in the defense of this great country. And to all the socialists liberals trying to end our way of life. I say this spend two weeks in the boots of a fwd Marine. God bless all of our branches. To the 75th Rangers, 101st Airborne, Navy SEALS, DEVGRU, Delta, Marine Raiders, and all that enlisted, or were commissioned to support our interest. Thank you for obeying your oaths, and standing on a line tonight so I can sleep in peace, as I did for those before me. This man is a warrior, and a true Marine.

    80 years old! Honestly, looking at the thumbnail, I thought it was going to be involving the middle east, not Vietnam.
