Well, considering it looks like he was infantry when he first joined the Army many years ago, and is Ranger tabbed as well, he's probably not your 'typical' 51-year old and still has a lot of muscle memory.

Sgt. Michael Murray, 51, is about to graduate basic combat training — again.

The first time was in 1992, when Murray attended infantry One Station Unit Training at Fort Benning, Georgia, said Army Training and Doctrine Command spokeswoman Megan Reed.

He later commissioned as an officer, earned a law degree from the University of Southern California, and racked up 17 years of active duty, Army Reserve and National Guard service. Three years ago, he left the military to work in the private sector in Port St. Lucie, Florida, according to a Fort Jackson news release.

But Murray decided he wanted to finish off his military career, so he enlisted once again and headed off to Fort Jackson, South Carolina, for a second round of basic training earlier this year.
