Jeff Bundy / Omaha (Neb.) World-Herald
Gunnery Sgt. Michael Burghardt signals his defiance after being struck by an improvised explosive device on Sept. 19 near Ramadi, Iraq. The Marine refused to be carried away on a stretcher and walked under his own power to a waiting medevac. Among those attending to the Marine are Spc. John Adams (far left in front) and Pfc. Darin Nelson.

The junior EOD Marines keep him motivated, he said. "If I leave, who are they going to learn from?" he said.

A classic line from a classy devil dog.

UUUUU ahhhh!

He has nothing to be ashamed of if you ask me. I wish I was half the man he is.

How is the photo “notorious”?

It's a great photo. All American. Geez, this from Stars and Stripes?

I don’t know why he’s wracked with guilt. He sent the message that his buddies would have sent, if they’d been able to do so.

Hey Master Sergeant Burghardt! You were my wallpaper for the longest time. A lot of the bleeding hearts where I worked at the time couldn’t understand why - it’s because I’m damned proud to have Men like you in the Corps.
