Like my Marine brothers who fought alongside me in the Battle of Fallujah, I know a little something about choices.
When the nosecones of 747 passenger jets punched into the Twin Towers, my choice was simple to make. My choice was not, as the patchouli-smelling Berkeley hippies would have you believe...

Oh, and I meant to THANK YOU so much for posting this!
No problem. Glad to do it. Men like Sgt. Conner deserve so much more of the spotlight than the MSM will ever give them.
PING!
The terrorists hijacked two 767s, not 747s, which they flew into the twin towers.
Sgt. Seth Conner, thank’s and God bless you.
Absolutely excellent! I am in awe of the men and women like Sgt. Connor.
Big God Bless the Troops Bumparoo!
Awesome article! Astonishing clarity of thought, wonderfully articulate — a great follow-on from his original open letter. The New Greatest Generation is made of fantastic mettle, and the Future is in good hands — despite what Berkely might think.
Ease away from that Post button, brother!
Good article by a Just Warrior: a Marine who does his job very conscientiously. I would be the proudest person on earth if my 18-year-old son Ben, who has just enlisted in the Marine Reserves, would mature into a man like this.
I stopped there too. Sounds like it might have been a good piece but I have a hard time reading something that has incorrect facts in the first couple sentances. Especially when it is something clearly written to have an emotional response. Even if it is a good response in this case.
Thank God for FR fact checkers - /s
Yeah, I don’t know, call me crazy, but if a guy dodges bullets for my freedom, I’m usually cool with letting a type (4 instead of a 6) slide when reading and listening to his views on an issue.
It is, after all, an editorial, not a definitive history. Typos happen. Hardly enough for me to not give a Marine an ear to listen to.
I’m assuming your misspelling of “sentences” was an attempt at ironic humor about typos hurting credibility, right?
LOL
What is this character trying to say? I’m a lberal AND a Democrat. I love the military! What I HATE is the military...er...er...the mission!!!

Nothing left to say! This fine man has said it all. Done it all, too, I’d dare say. Thank you for your service.

...this man defines the "vile" left, very accurately.
