In April 2004, over a loudspeaker heard throughout the bloody streets of Fallujah, Iraq, insurgents pleaded with Marines to pull back their deadly accurate snipers. They were talking about guys such as 22-year-old Sgt. John Place, a skilled scout sniper who kept his fellow Marines safe by nailing insurgents with a single shot. That skill, and his valor in Iraq, earned him a Silver Star, which he received here at a ceremony Friday.

The MSM celebrates brain dead celebrities and loudmouth worthless democrat politicians like DICK Durbin but none of them are even worthy of licking this young Marine’s boots.
