I have nothing to add save to mention how moved I am by the telling of this man's bravery and unflinching courage.
21 years old when he performed his heroic deed.....God bless him and all of our other men and woman in uniform.

It comes with a commercial, and starts with a prayer. 

Semper Fi!

Why don't you watch the video, Wilbur, and you'll have a chance to snark about how the CIC does without a teleprompter.  It had a different effect on me.

Are you thinking your distaste for the President somehow cheapens what this young man did that day?

Nope, I asked a simple question, because I cant watch the video right now.

18 minutes.  Quite a story.  Some people might call what he did a mutiny, but he pulled it off, so they hung our nation's highest honor around his neck.  He looks older than 23.

This post doesn't belong on a thread celebrating an actual American hero
As a matter of fact you don't belong on this thread

You're an asshole, Arizo, and I don't mean that in a good way.

No you did not.
You used this forum to take a cheap shot at the president instead of saying something positive about my brother.
You are a perfect example of your kind.
Have the courage to appologize for your borish behaviour or be forever known as someone who hates the marine corps and what they do.

Only you and ABM and maybe one other person that is watching could be so classless as to make snarks concerning a marine who has been awarded this country's highest award for valor.

If you had the balls that god gave a girl scout you would say that to sgt. meyer, whom I can promise you would teach you a little respect for him and his cic.
Your mindless hatred of all things not you is childish. When you diminish the man placing the medal on that marine you diminish that marine and all marines...
If I were you I would be careful about writing checks with your mouth that your ass can't cash.
This is not about obama this is about a marine being recognized for doing what marines do.

Damn Straight.  The solider should fell shame and anger for receive the Medal of Honor Award from the Secret Muslim Socialist Anti-Business Anti-American Kenya Born President for his bravery. Just the Fact that we have a president that hates America so much that he is willing to award an American soldier's bravery for saving other soldiers is an insult to America. Instead he should have resigned from the military and stop protecting American Freedom.
