Had never heard of him. Your link prompted me to join fox news so I found another story about him:

He was quite a guy, talked with him at the ShotShow a few years ago. He talked about the time he took out 12 or so NVA's crossing a river with his M-14 with a Star-light scope.

That's pretty neat that you got to talk to him.
When I was a little kid I had an uncle that was at Normandy, I spent quite a bit of time around him and he used to tell me stories about the war in Europe, I've remembered most of those stories, sadly he is also gone too, passed away a several years ago.
The men who saved the world are disappearing fast!
