This man is truly a hero, as are the men who gave their lives to try and save him. I've seen other threads about this but not with as many details so that's why I posted it.

Good find. Heroes, truly.

Just goes to show you the value of every individual American soldier in an army of thousands. I just hope he took a lot of Al Quaida subhumanoids with him. God bless our amazing troops.

I'm sure it's only a matter of time before this is blamed on Bush.

He is a true warrior and a hero.

God bless him.

A great American soldier. Makes one proud just to share citizenship with him.

Talk about a nightmare scenario: stranded and surrounded by the enemy. I agree with rageaholic. I hope he took out a bunch of the subhumans.

Any ideas what the "high-powered belt-fed machine gun" is?

It was hard for me to even open this thread - I cruised past it once because I could not bear it. Dear God, take this brave man into Your arms, bless him and keep him. Amen.

A brave man. I wish it had turned out differently and he had been able to come home. But he couldn't, and I hope that his family and all of us are proud of his courage and determination.

Wouldn't this story make an excellent "end-of-newscast" blurb? You know, the "human interest" story the leftist media usually fills with some sob story or story about a pet.

Alas, it will never happen though--our media is too concerned with bashing this country and reporting on how "poorly" our divisions fight in Afghanistan (according to "reliable" Northern Alliance fighters). God bless that man's soul.
