I'm sure the Marine Corps will honor him with the appropriate decoration.

It's beyond my meager abilities to honor him with the appropriate words.

As a father who has lost a child I forward these words to Mr. Morel in dealing with his family's loss. For me it has been 5 years. It gets better but not in a way that an illness gets better. I have found that the horrible pain does not paralyze me as it once did. However, my daughter is never far from my thoughts. The pain of others touches me in a way I was unable to understand prior to her death.Things that ate at me in the past especially trivial things no longer get in the way of me moving forward. I have learned to persevere because I have suffered through a pain that I thought was going to literally kill me from a broken heart. A pain that cannot be described.

My prayers go out to the Morel family and for their son. GOD bless you.

...the heroics of a Tennessean, Marine Capt. Brent Morel of McKenzie, Tenn.,
who stopped an insurgent ambush of his convoy by charging over open field
with five other Marines behind him, taking the fight to a superior force.


Good, solidly reported article...except "insurgents" just ain't direct enough
in describing murdering, heartless, thuggish terrorists.

The Captain will be warmly greeted and get to swap some good stories with
his fellow Tennesseean, one Alvin York.
