“Where do they find these fine men??”
On the front lines, or in the hospital, with limbs missing.
On another thread today, DEAN KAMEN was presenting a new biotech replacement limb for soldiers that the Military personally asked him to design.
He went on to explain about talking to the injured soldiers in the hospital. Some soldiers were missing an entire arm.
Some were missing both.
He was talking to a guy who seemed so happy. He was happy because he had only one arm missing, but had one arm left.
“and then”, Kamen said, “he shoved himself back from the table with his only arm, and I saw that he had no legs.”
Good find. Thanks! ;-)
That was great. Thanks.
Here is a video of the story I related earlier:

“i hope that I would have courage to do as this fine man did.”
And I pray it never comes to that.
Yes he is. amen. He is America’s wonderful President! So sad he has been trashed unendingly - those Americans who have not seen him in action every day as we have here - are the poorer for it.
God bless you, President Bush!
And God bless this brave serviceman - the best America has to offer!
Nailbiter and some other FReepers use this phrase as a ping to let each other know of particular post about a heroic service member.
I believe that Reagan asked the question while visiting Point du Hoc, for the 40th anniversary of DDay
Thx I will watch later
