CSM Basil Plumley

[Mitch Rapp]

Another one of our true national treasures, and an amazing warrior is not long for this world. Prayers for his family, and for our Nation if we forget men like him.

CSM Basil Plumley is a true hero. He dedicated his life to the service of his country. It is a shame that the media has not reported this.

A great warrior, veteran of WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. Probably known best from the movie We were soldiers. RIP.

To this day, there are veterans of the 1/7 CAV who are convinced that God may look like CSM Plumley, but HE is not nearly as tough as the Sergeant Major on sins small or large.

Died today after complications from cancer. Man could not kill Iron Jaw. It took God.

Toughness defined.

Garry Owen!

"Gentlemen, prepare to defend yourselves." May a great warrior rest in peace.
