Fred Smith, the FedEx founder who revolutionized the package delivery business, dies at 80. `Following college, Smith joined the U.S. Marines and was commissioned a second lieutenant. He left the military as a captain in 1969 after two tours in Vietnam, where he was decorated for bravery and wounds received in combat. He told The Associated Press in a 2023 interview that everything he did running FedEx came from his experience in the Marines, not what he learned at Yale University.` https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/fred-smith-fedex-founder-revolutionized-package-delivery-business-123089409
