Sweet, it said he was 84 at the end of the video though.

Those guys are born that way, then God reaches down and pats a few on the head for that little "extra". One of my hero's is Carlos Hathcock ("Marine Sniper" and "White Feather" author), may he RIP.

It also said he got out in '44? I doubt he was 18 when he got out.

My FIL was a sniper in Korea. He carried a lot of PTSD with him the rest of his life.

Amen. A hero in the sniper community and a Corps legend.

Didn't it also say he went in when he was 15? Or 16, maybe?

That's not unusual at all. Lots of boys lied about age to try to get in. Some got in and some didn't. Its not like they were turning men away and were taking just about everyone that volunteered.
