"There's something special about being awarded this by your peers, because it means they believe in you," Montoya says. "But what I did was an action of love. This award is for all the Marines that came before me and those that will come after me."
God bless this Marine hero.

"...I saw a hurt Marine and all my training came into play. It wasn't a cognitive thing; I just saw the situation and cared for my Marines..."
...In the end, Montoya said, "It's just a medal. Service before self is something I teach in the Marine Corps Martial Arts Program," said Montoya, a MCMAP instructor for his unit. "I feel the award represents the character of the Corps..."
...Montoya is the seventh Marine to receive a Navy Cross stemming from OIF...
