Great story. May convert a few who are only borderline left in the process.
The far left ones might have their heads explode watching that, which is a plus as well.

My pride and gratitude in being an American is again restored after the darkness of the Clinton Gore years. It is reborn because of the character and respect demonstrated by these young heroes.

Where do they get young men like this?

Very simple answer.

The United States of America. They are our sons and daughters. They are our visiual confirmation of the American spirit...

...of dedication,
...compassion
and bravery.

They are, quite simply, Marines.

"Where do we get such men? They leave this ship and they do their job. Then they must find this speck lost somewhere on the sea. When they find it, they have to land on its pitching deck. Where do we get such men?"

These young Marines and Soldiers of the Airborne & Armor
Impress the heck outta me...
I thought we were pretty tough in Vietnam..and we were...at least in the delta with the Mobile Riverines
But these kids...they are the real thing...tough as nails..and real pros...very disciplined and even tempererd...frankly they amaze me
Would be very proud to have a kid like these..
God Bless them all
