Lewis Puller was a United States Marine Corps officer who saw action in World War II as well as the Korean War. He got his nickname "chesty" because he had a barrel chest which he would stick out when he walked.
Puller was the only United States Marine in history to be awarded five Navy Crosses, the second highest medal in the US Armed Forces (the highest being the Medal of Honor).
