This guy, who at age 104 required a minivan to finish him off, sounds like the real deal. From Wiki's article:
Military service
He fought in the Pacific during World War II, and was awarded a Silver Star, a Bronze Star, and three Purple Hearts. "He saw that his men were really hurting, getting injured during a battle", Pete Spanakos said, "so he ran onto the field, grabbed two men under one arm, two under another, and brought them back behind the lines. And he did this several times."

Biology is just physics that has begun to smell bad.” —HalfMooner
Here's a link to Moonscape News, and one to its Archive.
