85 year old men are possibly surviving World War II veterans. They've been trained to kill, including in hand-to-hand combat.

Probably 15-25% of them can't remember to take their pills or that they need to eat lunch. I'd be shocked if any more than 10% of 85 year old WWII vets remember their hand to hand combat training and have the physical capacity to put it to use.

Richard Winters would so kick your ass.



Edit: I put up a picture of the wrong guy, though the other guy was funnier looking.

If you bring Dick Winters into the picture I think the question becomes how many 20 year olds could Dick Winters take.
