What else can you say?
In 1942, Dole joined the United States Army's Enlisted Reserve Corps to fight in World War II, becoming a second lieutenant in the Army's 10th Mountain Division. In April 1945, while engaged in combat near Castel d'Aiano in the Apennine mountains southwest of Bologna, Italy, Dole was hit by German machine gun fire in his upper right back and his right arm was also badly injured. As Lee Sandlin describes, when fellow soldiers saw the extent of his injuries, all they thought they could do was to "give him the largest dose of morphine they dared and write an 'M' for 'morphine' on his forehead in his own blood, so that nobody else who found him would give him a second, fatal dose."
And what has Ted Cruz done for this country?

Yeah--Bob Dole certainly didn't deserve that comment. He was shot up really bad during WW2--in fact, I think there is an old movie about it, and it left him with his left side unable to move for the rest of his life. Not only that but he was a "great statesman" in his days in the Senate.
I think Ted Cruz probably hit the dirt on that one.
Where did Cruz attack Bob Dole? I still haven't seen that explained. Dole may have been a war hero, but he was a RINO who sold out America.
