Only 3500 have been awarded the Medal of Honor. Of these, three have received the medal twice. One was recommended for it a third time. Marine Corps Sergeant Major Daniel J. Daly was an unlikely hero at five feet, six inches tall and 132 pounds. What he lacked in size he made up for in grit. He received his first Medal of Honor for single-handedly holding off enemy attacks during China''s Boxer Rebellion of 1900, the second for his daring, one-man action during an ambush in Haiti in 1915. He was nominated for (but not awarded) an unprecedented third medal in World War I for his valor at Belleau Wood, where he led a charge against the German stronghold with the battle cry, Come on you sons of bitches, do you want to live forever? This first full-length biography presents a detailed examination of a Marine Corps legend.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcknowledgments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreface: Even Heroes Have Heroes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne—An Epic Moment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo—The Making of the Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree—Marine Recruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour—The Boxer Rebellion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive—Peking Siege\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix—Love in War\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeven—Sea Soldier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEight—Vera Cruz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNine—Haiti\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTen—Dominican Republic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEleven—Over There\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwelve—Chateau Thierry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThirteen—Belleau Wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFourteen—The Third Medal of Honor \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFifteen—Soissons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSixteen—St. Mihiel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeventeen—Blanc Mont Ridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEighteen—­Meuse-Argonne\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNineteen—Final Years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwenty—Daly's Legacy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSergeant Major Daniel J.
