"The old vet" refers to an old man who was in the military. Former military members are called "veterans" or just "vets" for short.
When you're in the military you often have to "take action" such as attacking another force, storming a beach, etc.
However, this man is old and he's a vet - he's no longer taking action in a military sense. But he's still got his pride, he can still move on his own, he's going to be active and able for as long as he can.
So this sentence highlights that even though the old man can't act in the military sense anymore, he can still take smaller actions in what remains of his life. The narrator is sort of smiling in words at the old man's pride and ability to still take whatever action he can.
