I joined the Marine Corps 2 weeks before my 18th birthday in November 1976. Upon arrival at Parris Island in early January 1977, among the many things we learned were the exploits of those who came before us. Chesty Puller, recipient of 5 Navy Crosses, John Basilone, recipient of the Medal of Honor and the Navy Cross, Carlos Hathcock, the Marine Corps deadliest sniper, Smedley Butler, the other 2 time Medal of Honor recipient and of course Dan Daly. One doesn't "win" the Medal of Honor, you are nominated and awarded it.

FYI, it's not about 18-year-olds back then vs now. Among the most recent Medal of Honor recipients are some around 20. If you are a Medal of Honor recipient, you are an above average person, it doesn't matter what generation you were born into. The average 18-year-old back then wasn't anything like Dan Daly either. So, there's no point in asking "Can you imagine 18-year-olds today doing that?" Some are still doing stuff like that, though, even today. It was uncommon valor then, yet stiil happened, and it's uncommon valor today, and still happens.

I love Nick, aka the fat electrician. He always does a great job. As A Marine, Sgt Maj Daly is a legend, we are taught about all the past greats in boot camp. The boxer rebellion was even more insane than he covered, they didn’t leave him there alone to guard the refugees, there were multiple other machine gun teams. Every single other team got knocked out through the night long battle, either the gun broken, or the teams killed/wounded so badly they could no longer fight, and he was left as the surviving machine gun and guy capable of fighting, and finished the fight by himself. Also the boxers didn’t only have a couple guns, they had a lot of them, but they old/obselete ones, from muskets to semi modern at the time. Single shot, black powder cartridges. After that first night, and the 1200 other marines got there, they held that building against 50,000 rebels, 1200 marines did, they were down to heavy hand to hand fighting and bayonets, but they repelled the rebels and got all the civilians out. Oh yeah, that first night, it wasn’t 200 rebels attacking. The numbers are unknown for that, but Daly “defeating” 200, yeah that’s how many were dead infront of and around his position, so they were hit by hundreds, probably just a thousand that first night and under a platoon of Marines stopped them dead in their tracks.

Hyper-aggressive is a great word to describe the Marines. I met an Army soldier once, and he said when he was in Iraq doing convoys, he hated the combined convoys with Marines because his unit would push through any ambushes on the road and only stop if a vehicle was damaged or had casualties. He said that when they would receive fire from the enemy the Marines would just go toe-to-toe with the enemy with no concern about the size of the enemy. He said the Marines would decimate buildings with enemies, hop in their vehicles, and continue the convoy. 😆

Phil and Sam, when I was in Boot Camp the history of Marines like Daly was required study for all recruits. The life of these heroes inspired many subsequent generations of Marines to aspire to heights of heroism. Nimitz once said of the Marines on Iwo Jima, "Uncommon valor was a common virtue." It was the example of men like Dan Daly that drove the Marines to such exploits.

For God's sake, he did a rant about his wife buying the wrong kind of toilet paper and it was a hilarious and informative history lesson about toilet paper and a lot of associated things. Seriously, he made toilet paper interesting as hell! He also doesn't mind at all when people react to his videos and he'll often leave comments to them. He is the history teacher we all wish we had had in school. Plus, his war stories are all about the kinds of things we never learned, or even heard of, before. And everyone who watches your reactions to this legendary YT storyteller will tell you one or more that you HAVE to watch, and it won't all be the same one.
