Command Sergeant Major Basil Plumley--passed away at 4am this morning. Known as the Sarge from: We Were Soldiers.
If anyone here other than I, watched the Mel Gibson, Sam Elliott Nam War Movie called: We Were Soldiers--then you will know who I am talking about. Sam Elliott played him in that movie--he was: Command Sergeant-Major Basil Plumley--a 3 war vet. He passed away thanks to cancer at 4am this morning. Rest in Peace Sarge--you more than earned it and my unending respect.

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

I never met the man. But I have the utmost respect for who he was and what he did in his lifetime.
May God grant him the rest that he earned in leading men, fighting our nations enemies and being a true warrior and hero
Bless your spirit Command Master Sergeant Plumey.
