How about Larry Berra, USN, in World War II. He fitted out a spare landing craft with .50 cal machine guns, rounded up a crew, and went in to several beaches trying to take out as many German pill boxes and machine gun nests as he could. Got wounded, Purple Heart. Nothing funny about it. He did not like talking about it.
