BREAKING: LTG Hal Moore Passed Away At The Age Of 94




We are saddened to report that the veteran apparel company Grunt Style has announced that Lieutenant General Hal Moore has passed away at the age of 94 in Auburn, Alabama.

LTG Moore was the first American commander to engage in a large-scale battle with the M16 family of rifles during the Battle of Ia Drang. Moore was later quoted as saying “Brave soldiers and the M16 brought this victory.” Moore even stated that the M16 was “the best individual infantry weapon ever made.” I suspect that his leadership and the many hours of training had much to do with the victory as well.


The XM16E1 rifle used in the Battle of Ia Drang.

While he didn’t have a direct effect on the gun industry, Hal Moore did have an effect on the adoption of the M16 for service with the US military and our appreciation for the early days of Vietnam thanks to his book We Were Soldiers Once … And Young that would later be made into a movie. Had it not been for LTG Moore’s praise for the XM16E1, the adoption of the M16 and the proliferation of the AR 15 in America might not have happened.


LTC Bruce Crandall leaves LZ X-Ray.

Hal Moore was nothing short of a hero and patriot of the highest caliber. With 32 years of active duty service, Moore earned many awards for valor in the face of the enemy, most notably the Distinguished Service Cross (the award just below the Medal of Honor) for his conduct during the Battle of Ia Drang.

Rest in peace, Sir. Garryowen.

We Were Young and Soldiers Moore is best remembered as the lieutenant colonel in command of the 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry Regiment, at the Battle of Ia Drang in 1965, during the Vietnam War. Semper Fi Hal

I actually knew Hal Moore and his family when I lived in Seoul back in the early seventies. I was friends with his son. I have a great story of riding in their family station wagon (with the 2 star general flag on the front fender) and making the MPs salute us as we drove on and off the base.

Yeah, I guess you can call this guy the epitome of a war hero and a great American Patriot. John Kerry, John McCain, lol.

What does RIP mean to you assholes? I notice that the draft dodgers had to turn this into a feces flinging thread.

Easy to see who spent the 60s in the closet dressed like Klinger from MASH!

Nothing that we didn't already know about you, LLephantMan!

Let the man RIP.
