re: Your badass of the day...

I believe he was a Quaker. The State of Tennessee built him a big cabin and gave him some land, it's a museum and park now.

He learned to shoot growing up, and refused to serve in a combat position at first,based on his religion.

He changed his mind later though, thinking that maybe because of his ability, he could save some lives.

I guess he saw what terrible shots that most recruits really are.
