Ο πρώην πεζοναύτης, το όνομα του οποίου είναι γραμμένο στο βιβλίο Γκίνες καθώς ήταν ο μεγαλύτερος ηλικιακά διαγωνιζόμενος που είχε αγωνιστεί ποτέ, έπασχε τα τελευταία χρόνια από Αλτσχάιμερ.

Rudy Boesch 1928-2019 ?? Rudy was a legend in the SEAL Teams and in his case the word is not an exaggeration. He served from 1944-1990……that’s not a typo……46 years active duty. My dad bought Rudy’s SEAL Team TWO Seiko at a charity auction in 1996, gave it to me and Rudy always fucked with me when I’d ask for a picture with him and the watch until a couple years ago when he told me “we should get that damn picture so we can go drink beer”. ?? Rudy was one of the first Master Chiefs in the Navy and the first CMC of Team TWO in 1962. Of the things that will be said about him in the coming days rest assured they’re true. There are more PT stories, haircut stories and uniform stories than can be recounted on top of his Korea and Vietnam service as a UDT and SEAL operator. ?? Fair Winds and Following Seas! Teams and Shit #rudyboesch #getahaircut #dontgetbeat #uniforminspection #rudyisms
