These guys are so genuinely awesome. Sometimes "the greatest generation" seems to be a weak description.

That SOB looks meaner than the first time that he jumped out of that airplane, if that is possible...

As a multiple tour combat vet, I am completely content in the knowledge that I will never be as stone cold awesome as this guy.

Amazing contrast when you look at Pee Wee's photo and then at Bo-Zo's photo where he's tossing out the first pitch at a ballgame.
At 93, Pee Wee has more guts and class than our Dust Bunny.

Tungsten testicles. And that pic. He looks like he's saying 'Sure, let's go another couple rounds, Nazis. I've got nothing to do this weekend.'

Between this guy and the Brit who casually walked out of his nursing home so he could attend the festivities...

I wish more youth today looked up to guys like this instead of LeBron James.

Stud warrior without a doubt. If I looked to my six I'd want to see "Pee Wee" smiling back at me!

What a great pic! I wish and hope we can be like him. Oh, and I would love to have that M1A1 Thompson to do it with.
