Charles Coolidge, who was awarded the US Medal of Honor for leading an outmanned platoon against German troops and tanks in eastern France in 1944, died earlier this week at 99, according to the National Medal of Honor Heritage Center.
Coolidge, the oldest-living recipient of the highest US war honor, died “peacefully” in Chattanooga, Tennessee, near his birthplace of Signal Mountain, on April 6, the Heritage Center said.
During World War II Coolidge fought in North Africa and then Italy, where, in mid-1944 as part of the 36th Infantry Division, he won the Silver Star, the second-highest commendation, in the fight to capture Rome from the German army after the Anzio landing.

Joe Biden is expected to reveal his planned executive actions on firearms today. According to reports ahead of his announcement, Biden will specifically take aim at requiring background checks for the sale of a new bogeyman â so-called âghost guns,â or firearms without serial numbers that are often homemade. Is this just tinkering around the edges, or is he getting a foot in the door for something bigger?
The so-called âghost gunsâ category is intentionally vague terminology that creates an impression of illegality, similar to the erroneous âassault rifleâ designation. Bidenâs order would classify 80% lowers, components sold separately without serial numbers, as firearms. By classifying them as such, a buyer would be subject to a background check. But Biden hopes for an essential ban on the sale of these âghost guns.â
