Yes, you won't hear much about from the leftwing anti-gun propagandists, but Peter Wang, a 15 year old JROTC member, gave his life holding open a door, under fire, so fellow students and even teachers could escape. Not everyone at Parkland was a coward.
While we’re on the subject, let me mention something about JROTC programs. I taught for many years in a big city high school. There were daily fights in the hallway, lots of student cursing, etc.
But there was one exception to all that: the JROTC hallway. It was like being in another world, a civilized world. And if any non-JROTC students happened to enter there, the glare of the JROTC instructor (a retired Army sergeant) was enough to keep them in line.
Thanks for the post and sharing details and remembrance
There are heroes in this tragedy but they are getting lost under the avalanche of the look at me’s.
Thank you Cadet Wang. May God’s glory, love, grace be yours. I will remember your name.
