87-Year-Old Marine Credits His Military Training for Helping Him Survive the Wuhan Coronavirus
[Red State] How about a feel-good story about feeling bad?

In our current state of quarantine, you’ve no doubt been exposed to tales of woe that ended badly due to COVID-19.

But there’s an 87-year-old out there who wants you to know that not everyone over 65 who gets the virus falls to it.

CBS News recently featured veteran Franklin Eller.

The former Marine has now survived two tours in Vietnam and one tour of the Wuhan flu, and he says his military training helped him get through it all.
