There are no words grand enough to match the bravery, the honor, and the courage exhibited by PFC Joe E. Mann. This country, no the world, has been blessed with the smartest, bravest, most humble of soldiers imaginable. Can you conceive of a world without the U.S. soldier? I cannot. Thank you so much for sharing.
P.S. BTW, is he a relation?
No, I knew his history from my time in the service at FT Campbell in the 60's. The post theater is named the Mann Theater and everyone knows its history and what it represents. There use to be a ceremony that you were required to attend at the Mann Theater when you were assigned to 101st.
