Naval Air Crewman Wins Combat V for Bravery in Iraq By Bill W. Love, Naval Hospital Corpus Christi Public Affairs CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (NNS) -- Hospital Corpsman 2nd Class (NAC) Brad S. Tiefel was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal with Combat "V" for heroic action during Operation Iraqi Freedom, in a ceremony Oct. 21 at Naval Hospital Corpus Christi (NHCC). |
It takes a very brave and dedicated person to go into a combat zone unarmed. God bless and protect them all.
He was just doing his job of taking care of others.
He deserves this medal. We are gratefull for his service under extreme conditions. He did it for US!
Now there is a REAL WAR HERO!
For those Kerry supporters that had to ask, this is why it is important that Kerry lied about his medals, especially the "combat V" on his Silver Star. It diminishes the heroism of men like Hospital Corpsman 2nd Class (NAC) Brad S. Tiefel. Congratulations and thanks to this fine American. As for Kerry, this shows why he is shameless.
Corpsman BTTT.
Bump!
Semper Fi Doc!
That's why Marines love their corpsmen!
Bill Love needs a remedial course in Marine Corps aircraft nomenclature. That would be a CH-46 Sea Knight.
Go Navy ~ Bump!
