Just damn! Cpl. Wright is a TRUE hero!

Absolutely!! I heard him in a radio interview a couple of weeks ago--said he'd be back out there with him if there were any way he could go. Completely humble and not a shred of bitterness or pity about his wounds. Reminds me of the poem by D.H. Lawrence...

Self-Pity

I have never seen a wild thing

sorry for itself

A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough

without ever having felt sorry for

itself.
