93-yr-old WW II veteran runs across US in 3 yrs
A 93-year-old World War II veteran, Ernie Andrus, ran across the United States covering over 4,500 kilometres in three years. Andrus started the cross-country trek in October 2013 from San Deigo and reached St. Simon’s Island on Saturday. The run was aimed at raising money to return a WW II-era ship to France for the Normandy invasion's 75th anniversary.
