I charged Cemetery Ridge and San Juan Hill. I survived Pearl Harbor and the Song Tay raid. Not bad for a guy who is only 31, don’t you think? ;-)

Why you young pup. I was in the Velociraptor Cavalry.

Funny you'd mention Son Tay. The guy I worked for claimed to have been on the Son Tay raid. I've twice seen comprehensive lists of all participants down to the cooks and bakers level, and his name isn't present. Not even anything at all close.

One of my former coworkers claimed that he was the seventh highest decorated veteran still alive at that time, and that he had served in the 75th Ranger Division. Two of my other coworkers are veterans of the 75th Ranger Regiment, and they called him out on his lies. He ended up quitting that afternoon, shortly before our HR manager found out that he'd also lied about having a master electrician's license.
