"My friends and my Marines are still there, still fighting," he said softly. "Any Marine in their right mind would want to be right there with them. All I've really lost is about 10 degrees of peripheral vision, and I'll be OK without that. I'm ready to be with my Marines again."
Where do we get such men as these?
Semper Fi !

We should all sleep more soundly at night knowing that men like this are out there looking out for us.
Thank you, Gunny!
