On February 26-27, 1945, Watson single-handedly killed more than 60 enemy soldiers, thus enabling his platoon to advance, earning him the nickname "One-Man Regiment of Iwo Jima". In the attack, he was shot seven times and was hit in the shoulder by mortar fragments. He was evacuated from Iwo Jima after he suffered a gunshot wound to the neck on March 2, 1945.
Watson was credited with inspiring actor John Wayne's "shoot from the hip" style in his films. Wayne heard of Watson's style after hearing about how Watson charged the crest of a hill on Iwo Jima, firing from his hip.

Following Watson’s discharge from the Marine Corps, he enlisted in the United States Army Air Forces, and then the Army as a private, working as a mess hall cook. He was arrested in 1963 for desertion after being reported missing from his post in Fort Rucker, Alabama in October 1962. When asked about his leaving, Watson stated he just got "fed up" with the Army and left. He eventually reached the rank of staff sergeant and retired from the military in 1966. He died in December 1994 at age 72. He is buried at Russell Cemetery in Ozone, Arkansas.
