The most decorated US marine in history, Lieutenant General Lewis Burwell "Chesty" Puller was born on this day in 1898.A common saying among the marines ending a day of basic training is said to be, "Good night, Chesty Puller, wherever you are!"
Puller is also attributed with the quote: "All right, they're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us...they can't get away this time."
