I don’t think I have ever seen someone pull out their own hair and place it on a casket before.

Oh I already knew that, my comment was on how straight they lined them up as they slapped them in. That is a show of precision and of how much they honored their brother in arms.

The bravery of Mike Monsoor was given a special tribute at the GOP convention - among other places.

God bless him...and all the other brave men and women who risk their lives every day in the service of their country.

I’ve seen the video of the SEALS putting their tridents on the casket. This is no BS. What an amazing sight. By all accounts Mansoor was an amazing man.

EOD’s are absolutely fearless.

Some start as SEAL and end up EOD. Some are EOD and travel with SEAL teams. Both are highly trained and fearless.

May be true, but Michael was a SEAL.

Who cares if he is EOD or not. The only thing that matters is that, Micheal gave hi life so you can live. Who cares, he saved many mens lives that day. Who cares if his casket wasn’t draped with the flag. He died so you can sit on your lazy butt and live. Why don’t you get out there and jump on a grenade. I don’t think you would do it, to save your family, wife, kids, maybe. But what about people you don’t know. You just think about that why won’t you.
