Saw this story earlier today, Denis. Thanks for posting it!
I knew an older retired Marine back in the 80's who lived in Santa Ana. He was one of the Marines who landed on Guadalcanal, back in WWII. He was one tough SOB!!!
In his 70's I was helping him move some furniture for his daughter (a friend of my wife's at the time). This guy was strong as a bull, stubborn as a mule and could work from sun up to sundown, and it wouldn't phase him.
I couldn't imagine getting into a scrap with him. He would have torn me in half!
I have no doubt it was the retired Marine in this story that opened up the can of whoopass!
