has all but placed the Vietnam veteran in the pantheon of Marine heroes alongside "Chesty" Puller, Smedley Butler and Dan Daly,...

I strongly suspect that the guy who wrote this article is not a Marine.

I like the Gunny and have seen some of his shows and the movie. However, no Marine is gonna put him in the same class as Chesty.

Amen, brother.

Good night, Chesty, wherever you are.

“...no Marine is gonna put him in the same class as Chesty."

Truly spoken.

I like the old Gunny, but I strongly disagree with him on this issue. He's the one who could use a good squaring away on this matter.

I’ll second that. I respect the Gunny for his service, but he’s an actor now.
