RIP Woody Williams

Marine veteran Hershel "Woody" Williams, the last surviving WWII Medal of Honor winner, has passed away aged 98.

Williams was the last surviving MOH recipient from WWII - all 472 have now passed. Woody won his MOH in part for destroying "enemy emplacements with a flamethrower, going forward alone into machinegun fire, covered only by four riflemen."

Where do we find such men?
