The supreme sacrifice, I wonder how many of us could make that choice in a split second?
If it were for our own children it wouldn't be hard.

His fellow Marines witnessed his courage and sacrifice,
Active service and veterans around the world take heed.
The Congress of the United States of America must properly recognize Sergeant Rafael Peralta, USMC for action above and beyond the call to duty.
God Bless and keep you, Rafael!

This calls for a really profound statement, and I'd like to be the one to make it. If only I had the words. Sgt. Peralta's actions say it all, but I still wish I had the words to properly honor him.

Its amazing how the MSM downplays this story. I don't think that understand how a Marine could sacrifice his life to save others.

"Tell the story of Sgt. Peralta!"
I told my Sunday school class kids his story a few weeks ago. The lesson was on being faithful. (God faithful to us, and us faithful to him.)
I spent half the time telling Sgt. Peralta's story. He had faith in his fellow marines, and they had faith in him. Trust, honor, integrity, - Love.
Semper Fi
God Bless our troops.
