Badass WWII Veteran Jumps Out Of A Plane To Commemorate D-Day Anniversary

Jim Martin, 93, proved he was a badass when he parachuted into France 70 years ago, ahead of the D-Day invasion.

He proved he hasn't lost his touch when he completed a tandem parachute jump on Thursday to commemorate the anniversary of D-Day.

Martin told Reuters he wanted to do the jump now because he may be the last man from his unit of the 101st Airborne Division to ever do it again.

I salute Mr. Martin for his service then and for his CAN DO spirit today. Men like him are few and far between.
