You should real Lone Survivor - I got it after hearing an interview with Marcus Luttrell on Glenn Beck.

Reading of his death is heart-wrenching. There’s no medal big enough to honor a man like that.

SEALs make all men look small.

>> :( His picture made me cry. Don’t know why...

His picture and the events it represents are not recognized in popular culture. And when we come across these events in the corners of the media spectrum, we’re too often not prepared for the impact it has on us. There a millions, upon millions of grateful Americans who share the deepest concerns for our Military, and yet the suffering and sacrifice our Military makes is afar and alone, away from their parents, loved ones, children, and friends. The anguish we feel is but a fraction of that endured by the families and friends of these great heroes. I can only hope the tears we shed and the prayers we keep bring solace to those who suffer in the memory of God’s greatest gift to freedom; the selfless and courageous men and woman who live and die for the liberty of others.
