No need to ellipses the quote...

12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command you.”

John 15:12-14

This is the unfortunately the exception, not the rule - but this SGT is exactly what we need MORE of in the military (and the general population, at that).

I have to admit that while my knowledge of the bible is better than the average bear, there are very few that I can declare the actual chapter and verse. In the part of the woods, it is amazing that anyone still knows what the bible is.

Although, I do listen to it in the car. On long drives it is amazing the gems you can find in the more obscure books.

Thanks for filling in the blanks.
